I haven't had bites from diamond back, but lots from cotton mouth and copperhead. Even on small terriers all I have ever had to give is benadryl, infant ibuprophen for swelling and pain and pen for potential infection. Given a day or two for swelling to go away and they've off and running. Diamondbacks are much more venomous, I would say if its been a couple days already and dogs is still alive I would treat the pain and swelling and keep that tough dog comfortable. Good luck to you.
