I let the dogs out in the back yard and before I knew it a rattlesnake that was on my back porch had bitten my Mogee!!! Cannot believe that snake was curled up on my back porch!! Mogee is the most friendly of my 3 and was clueless to what was going to happen to him. I had given al the dogs the rattlesnake vaccine but the snake had hit a real vascular area around his ear. He was screaming when I realized what had happened. I had to gather all the dogs up cause they were investigating the snake and it was horrible. I did not know how effective the vaccine would have been but Mogee was bleeding so bad I knew he had to see the vet ASAP. I flew 90 mph down the road..(country road) and within 10 minutes he was in shock. The vet immediately started all the pro call for him and that included anitvemon.
She said that if rattlesnake strike main vascular area then the antivenin does not have a chance to work. She says he is not out of the woods yet so I am believe for complete recovery.
Suppose to call back after 4.
Wanted everybody to know and pray.
