[QUOTE="Traxion, post: 326534, member: 983"] I know the opinions are mixed on the rattlesnake vaccine, but my dad's dog had it and was bitten right on the face. She did really well considering and the vet said it was the difference between her making it and not. He totally believes in the shot. Unfortunately you do need a booster every year and timing is somewhat important. We time it to have what is supposed to be maximum effectiveness for September hunting seasons, though she was bitten in June. Well wort the minimal cost. As far as snake breaking, I would certainly do that if someone did it close. Exactly as described, snakes and electricity. But it seems to work. Only other advice I'd say is the obvious- if you are worried about snakes, don't let the dog wander beyond leash range. Never know where a snake is coiled up, be it under a vehicle or behind the next bush. Part of the game unfortunately. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
