We chose the antibiotic route and waited it out. After a several days she improved.<br />So the second time it happened we used the same treatment. This time her reaction was not as bad. She may have built up an immunity. Her size was definitely in her favor. She seems to avoid snakes now and hopefully her memory of the bites will stay with her, of course the other 8 dogs find them a curiosity.<br />Yes, the Diamondbacks venom is toxic. We usually have a run in with two or three snakes a year. When the dogs start to bark like crazy we know something is amiss and go out to remove the problem.cheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17856946366457557038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300680147483338071.post-52347378393792066522010-12-29T08:44:58.914-07:002010-12-29T08:44:58.914-07:00omg rattlesnake bites?
