I didn’t think people still died of rattlesnake bites.

A friend was recently bitten by a pygmy rattler. Cost her 5 days in intensive care and 8-$5000 anti-venom shots.

I’ve lived in such poisonous snake rodeo states as Texas, Mississippi, Virginia, and Arizona (have a townhouse in southern AZ). Anyone who is not FULLY aware of snakes is a fool. This goes doubly for those who through their stupidity put their dogs in harms way. Nature is very unforgiving.

CORRECTION, your friend was allegedly bitten by a size challenged rattler.
