My brother just lost his favorite dog (a small dachshund/chihuahua mix) to a rattler, despite being vaccinated. The bite was to his side, near his heart, and that was exactly the wrong place, according to the vet.Eric Siegmundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10123025910283830807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8504585770830524971.post-20928246717240134232007-08-15T17:35:00.000-05:002007-08-15T17:35:00.000-05:00Hey Janie, thanks for sharing that.

They struck her right above her right eye, her side of her head and neck swelled immensely, so off to the emergency vet we went. She came through just fine, laid around and didn't eat or do much for about 3 days then poof she was back to being a ball of energy. The vet did warn us that this time of year in the early evening is when snakes come out to feed. I never did find that snake or it would have been a dead snake.Bleuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781564239740571444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8504585770830524971.post-52540650339705315602007-08-13T04:04:00.000-05:002007-08-13T04:04:00.000-05:00Who knew there was so much involved?
