View Full Version : Bit by Copperhead mdoc 06-04-2007, 20:57 Neighbors dog bit by copperhead, look how swollen leg is. Dog at vet getting treatment... http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s239/jmord/100_29461.jpg http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s239/jmord/100_29421.jpg Birdhunter1 06-04-2007, 21:18 None of mine have ever been bitten but my oldest Brittany has pointed 3 of them. Darndest thing I've ever seen, I let him run while I ride the 4 wheeler through the fields in the summer and all of a sudden he locks on point solid as can be. Whenever I go up to him I don't know if it's going to be quail, a rabbit, a turtle or a snake. Hope the dog is alright. Bob 06-05-2007, 13:02 Bet that hurts. My dog is always jackin w/ snakes... gretchensteele 06-05-2007, 14:31 My niece lives across the river on a bluff and her dog seems to get bitten at least once a year - and she has always recovered fine...but is usually pretty sore and gimpy for a while....they are overwhelmed with copperheads...seems like she chases at least one a month out of the house...and in the fall they just flock to her basement doors.... |
