Be careful out there. Rattlesnakes are out on these warm days. My setter got bit on Saturday at DiLane. I think he will be OK but not a fun experience.

Thanks for your concern. He seems to be doing well. He is putting weight on his leg and acting fine. Kind of amazing considering what he was like after the bite.
Had your setter been vaccinated with the Red Rocks vaccine?
Had he been "snake broken?"
What treatment or first aid was rendered?
It's good to hear he's doing well. Thanks. Gil
I have always been afraid of this happening to my dogs. It gets cold enough in North GA that I don't think it is much of a problem, but every time I get a chance to hunt further south, it is a concern.
Glad he's doing better. Mine got bit a couple months ago in the eyelid. The 5 or 6 day seemed to be her worst day could have just been reaction to antibiotics and the steroid though. She was good as new about day 8 other than the swelling. Hope yours recovers quickly.
