If they survive the snake bite, the next issue is secondary infection at the site of the bite, so antibiotics are good! Yes....the vet went to the house...but it took him all day to get there and he kept coming up with excuses not to come...was "going to be at least 3 hours before he could get there"....."going to be after the clinic closes"...."charge much more for house calls"...."additional charges for after hours"...."additional fee because they could NOT get the dog out from under the truck so the vet had to crawl up under the truck to care for the dog"....with each excuse, my brother just kept saying, MY dog NEEDS you, come on".....my brother loves his animals and would have floated a loan for that bill if he had to....but I lost a lot of respect for that vet..... |
