Glad to see Bob slithered back into

DH talked to the vet today about what to
do if he ran into rattlesnakes again with
the dogs. Vet said bites are rare but they
already had one dog bit this year. Anti venom
costs about $500+ and then there is after
care. Still cheap at twice the price.

We had our dogs vaccinated for rattlesnake venom a couple of years ago. They
get a booster every spring. While it doesn't work for every variety of
rattlesnake, it seems like cheap protection. I have dragged more than one
snake out of my yard, so I know they are here. I would just ignore them, but
dogs always seem to lead with their noses!
