That’s a krazy looking snake . I’m in the mid Atlantic and we have timber rattlesnakes , copperheads, cottonmouths in my immediate area. I’ve never seen a snake that looks like that. We do have black racers here.

Thanks! It wouldnt be a bad idea for me to keep some of that anti venom around just in case. It cost me $900 to do anti venom at the vet so I would save a ton of money doing it myself. Not sure how much you need to inject into a dog thats been bit.
I did get all my dogs vaccinated last week against rattlesnakes

That’s great that you did. I’m not sure either how many ml you would inject. I want to get my Dane vaccinated with it as well. Especially since we go hiking. Hell about two weeks ago we’re taking our nightly walk and had a fox come charging at us but stopped about 15ft away before going back to the yard. My Great Dane weighs about 103lbs but is still a puppy and I don’t think that fox 30lbs maybe wanted any. Now he is wild I get it but I think if he would have attacked and my Dane realized it was trying to hurt him then it’d have been a wrap! Cuz he’s had his rabies shots and he’s fuckin strong and he’d rip that fox in half if he got ahold of it.

But I think what happened was that the fox had just killed something and we startled it and it was just protecting his kill. But needless to say I’m going to start carrying a little blowback pellet pistol when we start walking. I ain’t trying to have the neighbors and popo see me carrying a .380 or 9mm walking the streets at night lol
