LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — A company will be hosting a rattlesnake aversion training clinic for dogs this month.

Snake Aware K9 will offer the training on Sunday, June 30, at Wasson Memorial Veterinary Clinic in Lakeport.

Snake Aware K9 is a joint partnership between Sean Dewil of Canine Energetics, a seasoned canine training specialist, and Roy Arthur Blodgett of Rattlesnake Relations, offering rattlesnake mitigation services to the North Bay region for many years.

The training is usually about 15 minutes per dog, and it's been the most effective method the partners have found in making dogs more snake aware — helping dogs, snakes, and people to coexist a bit more peacefully.

Space is limited. To book a slot, call or text Roy Blodgett at 707-331-4010, or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
