I work at a local veterinary clinic and have seen a few snake bit dogs come in. I think time is everything but even getting them in quickly doesn't always guarantee they'll survive.

You must have been wearing stout boots to step on the rattler. I could never have done that with what I wear in the garden. Better keep my hands away from dark secluded places too.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915750954797799322.post-53318468098128392852012-06-10T22:34:01.177-05:002012-06-10T22:34:01.177-05:00Tabor, I have absolutely no fear of snakes at all,...Tabor, I have absolutely no fear of snakes at all, but I have great respect for what they can do and know what they can't do. I didn't kill the snake but caught it and gave it to a friend to release on a big ranch in west Texas. I have at least 3 different Coral snakes that live around my ponds and that doesn't bother me at all.<br /><br />Bonnie didn't attack the snake when she got bit. She was snuffing around my shop when she got bit. I broke her from jumping on snakes using a rat snake.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08820151806039495564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915750954797799322.post-52878497850609187012012-06-10T15:55:37.790-05:002012-06-10T15:55:37.790-05:00I'm thankful you were able to get Bonnie is al...I'm thankful you were able to get Bonnie is alright. We lost a dog due to a snake bit eleven years ago. We lived in Burnet at the time.<br />We took our dog Bella to Winter Kennels this morning for snake avoidance training. Well worth the $60.00! They have a location close to Bee Caves, and one in Burnet.

I haven't seen any snakes around the house in a few years, but I did find a hatched reptile egg that was probably about 3/4" in diameter in my garden bed the other day. Which tells me that there's gotta be a snake somewhere.katinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658859113915782535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915750954797799322.post-54893780430719141942012-06-10T10:55:32.359-05:002012-06-10T10:55:32.359-05:00Glad to hear that Bonnie will be ok.
