Dog owners, whether hunters or just pet owners who find themselves in snake country, can take two fronts. For that, One Shot Retrievers Kennel in Frankston will hold a snake avoidance clinic beginning at 8 a.m. Aug. 29. Conducted by experienced snake avoidance trainer Wayne Lain, the course uses all the dog’s senses: sight, sound and smell. Although geared to rattlesnakes, the training has also taught dogs to avoid moccasins and copperheads as well. Cost of the snake avoidance training is $125 cash, and it is open to any species of dog.
