What effect has anyone had to relay , on a bitch haveing been bit by a copperhead snake within days of whelping.?

Any  drugs given or what was given?

What happened to the pupppies of the litter.?

Female was bit in the foot and was wondering what anyone else has done or had happen similiar.

We are having a lot of snakes this spring here, and the water levels have brough water moccasins and copperheads are famous here where I live also.

Lassie layed in the mud.

Talk to a veterinarian.

If I KNEW it was a copperhead and not a water moccasin AND the dog were not pregnant, and over all healthy I would probably just treat with benedryl and monitor for infection.

If I had  a pregnant dog same situation I would be calling the vet.

The vet was called .and the person owning the bitch  knew what to do..............................   The question was:

    What has anyone else had happen to the pups  if you had this happen to your dog.?

What did you do and what treatment did You  have done and the outcome...?.

Ahsighee is not asking your help..../........the dog he is talking about already went thru it..... He is asking for discussion of what   YOU  experienced.....no need for any tellin him what to do..  that is not the question....

This was a pregnant bitch.  Have you  had this happen to you ?  What was Your outcome?
