Meet Rusty

This Started With Losing a Dog.

At a young age, while hunting, Rusty witnessed a dog die from a rattlesnake bite. It stayed with him. That experience became the beginning of his mission: helping protect dogs from rattlesnake encounters before they happen.

More than 28 years later, Rusty has trained thousands of dogs — on trails, at ranches, and in backyards across Southern California. His approach is hands-on, patient, and focused on each dog succeeding.
