Well, you can rely on the internet if you want to and I'll stick with my vet's advice. If you read it on the internet it has to be true. Both of my dogs have gone through snake breaking more than once with live rattlers, moccasins and copperheads. Avoiding them getting bit is the best medicine. I don't hunt them on balmy winter days, especially afternoons. Known more than one dog killed by a snake in the winter around here. Another vet I know spent over $3500 out of his own pocket on his dog trying to keep it alive and he lost it anyway. Around here, snakes, especially diamondbacks, will come out of their holes in the dead of winter and sun near their burrows. Damn, Frank. Crushed me again, I was hoping to hear more corn pone wisdom from you between carols. Gil
