I posted on Kev's snake thread, but I also wanted to post here too to let everybody know to seriously watch out for snakes.
Bo was bitten about 2 years ago by a copperhead, and now 2 years later he got bit again trying to protect his family.
My family was on a hike Bo saw the snake slither out from behind my kids and attacked it. He never even barked or growled. He looks alot better this time than last (thank GOODNESS). We are treating him with viatmin C, Benadryl and antibiotics. It has been 8 hours and 40% of the swelling has went down, but hes still in miserable pain (poor baby).
PLEASE keep a eye out for snakes when you go hiking.
If you look in the fourth pic you can see the bite from 2 years ago still pink with no hair (above the date stamp-probally will never grow it back).
