The south end of Basking Ridge is getting some much needed fire abatement. Is your home prepared for fire season?
Let’s create defensible spaces on our properties such as keeping weeds to a minimum, not collecting items outdoors, using fire-resilient landscaping. Plastics, dried plants, even car tires kept outdoors are an extreme fire hazard. Let’s do our part to keep our beautiful neighborhood safe.

Dogs don't know that rattlesnakes can kill them! They're often attracted to the movement, sound and smell of them which is why so many are bitten in the face.

Teach your dog to AVOID THEM!

Reserve your spot in a 30 minute session - each session can accommodate up to 4 dogs so even with multiple dogs you can get them all trained at once.

Please take a minute to watch this video

UPCOMING TRAINING JUNE 11/22 https://fb.me/e/3cDP50wXj

And with the heat wave (over 110° next week!!!) coming next week, the dryness will be forcing them into all kinds of places.

Plan on being here for 30 minutes. Each dog averages 7 minutes from start to having passed their final exam.

I think there are still a few openings left on Saturday but there are for sure some Sunday afternoon.

SnakeWorx travels the state all year training law enforcement, search and rescue, hunting and pet dogs to avoid rattlesnakes. I try to get them twice a year for our community and this year I got them 3 times!

There's a great video of the process in the link

Just got this email re. SnakeWorx and the training they they did here at my place.
How nice of her to think of us in such a stressful time.
(made me tear up!)
Another training coming up in June -
It was full so they've added a second trainer and more spots. There are limited spots for multiple dogs so if you can't find one let me know and I'll do my best to get you in.

Hi there,

I just signed up our pup Riley for June 13 training. I will be out of town so my husband is hoping to get her there.

I just wanted to email and say thank you so much for hosting this... I’m typing this as I’m sitting in the parking lot of the emergency vet waiting to bring Riley home in perfect health because this training worked. She was standing almost on top of a baby rattlesnake hidden under a rubber mat and she reacted fast and got the hell away when she heard the rattle, just like the training taught her. We brought her in to make sure she didn’t get bit, and she didn’t. The vet said the training is likely what saved her.

So again thank you, and thank you to the Snakeworx people.. it’s a literal life saver!!!

The other reason I choose SnakeWorx to put on the trainings in San Martin. ❤️❤️❤️

Anthony working with a very nervous dog that has never gone with a stranger before. Training went very well.

Wow! Such an amazing response from dog lovers all over the bay area!

The May appointments are almost full (4 left last I checked) so we added another clinic June 12th and 13th!

It'll take about 10 minutes in a 30 minute slot to teach your dogs to stay away from rattlesnakes. SnakeWorx brings their expert trainer and snake handler plus their LIVE, MUZZLED rattlesnakes to San Martin for the clinic.

You can see the video of their process here https://youtu.be/nm-yUy30mfc

As I'm talking with folks about this weekend I'm hearing lots of stories of close calls and sightings, stay safe out there! It's likely to be a rough year with them.

See it? Sooo, this was in someone's chicken coop the other day... By the time Mike Phillips the wildlife removal guy got there it had moved to the garage!

Your dog doesn't know what they are! And probably wouldn't even see it unless it moves - and think about how dogs decide what something is 😱 where they put their face. Yikes!

Here's how the training works
