She is doing good right now. Sleeping a lot but that is understandable with the amt of bendryl I gave her. Plus the aspirin.
This is a pic of her edema. Vet said this is very very common and is only a collection of water in her tissues. He said it will go down on it's own.
In the first picture in this thread you can see the scrap from the other fang on her bottom lip...
Juan just told me he does not think it was a pigmy rattler. He believes it to be a much bigger snake due to how far apart the fang marks are. It might have been something else other than the suspected pigmy and we just got lucky that both fangs did not penetrate and eject venom... She is a fast moving dog and possibly the strike was while she was in motion. Hopefully this will teach her to stay away from snakes. The fang marks are a good 2-3 inches apart. It had a big mouth.
