Snake Aversion Training | Dog Snake Avoidance Training

Protect your dog from one of Australia’s most serious outdoor hazards with our Snake Aversion Training Program.

Designed for dogs living in rural areas, bush environments, farms, and homes where snakes are a risk, this specialised snake avoidance dog training program teaches your dog to recognise and avoid snakes through controlled, structured training.

Hosted at The Shepherds Watch, our natural bushland property provides the perfect environment for realistic snake awareness training, allowing dogs to learn valuable avoidance skills in the type of environment where encounters are most likely to occur.

Your dog will learn:

• How to identify and respond appropriately to snake encounters
• To create distance and avoid snakes
• To disengage from natural prey drive behaviours
• To make safer choices around wildlife
• Confidence and control in outdoor environments

Our snake aversion training for dogs also includes exposure to realistic scenarios, including common backyard encounters, helping your dog develop safer habits around areas where snakes may be present.

This program is ideal for:
✔ Rural and farm dogs
✔ Hunting and working dogs
✔ Dogs that explore bushland areas
✔ Dogs living in snake-prone regions
✔ Owners wanting additional safety skills for outdoor adventures

Give yourself greater peace of mind knowing your dog has been professionally trained to understand that snakes are something to avoid.

Limited weekend farm stay availability at The Shepherds Watch.
