A dog got bitten by a rattlesnake in her own backyard, leaving the owner with a hefty vet bill.
SIMI VALLEY, Calif.Spring Showers may bring more flowers, but they also bring out the rattlesnakes. That also means this could mean more calls to emergency vet clinics.
The rattlesnake, a young one, no less, which usually means more potent venom, was hiding behind a garbage can, and attacked Charli quickly, right on top of the head. Veterinarians hustled and the poor animal was in and out of the hospital after a week. She is still swollen and barely beginning to act like the lively pup her family adores, but the prognosis is good. Snakes go into backyards and garages, especially in homes near hillsides, so don’t think your dog may not be in danger if you don’t hike with them
There are rattlesnake avoidance clinics for dogs. Look into them, especially if you hike with your animal.
