Just a warning!!!!!

I ain't saying these timber rattlers won't kill a dog but we've never had one die, we've had so many at the vet that he finally told us to just give benadryl and keep the dog cool , calm and alone for a few days. It works every time, now on the other hand my wife is a 911 dispatcher and we had a guy die from a rattlesnake bite just the other day, he tried to drive to the hospital and pulled in to a house on the way, but it was to late, he was an elderly man though, I think that played a big part in him not making it. Sad situation, I use to catch those suckers bare handed, I'll have to post some pictures up , I've caught some 6 footers . Those days are over...lol. and this was just last summer
