You, RFN, 2011....

I have a big ole copperhead that lives in my wood pile. I leave him alone, he leaves me alone. Rattlers will bite my dogs because they make noise and give them a reason to investigate. My cattle dog got bit by a big ole rattlesnake last year. We freaked. But after talking to some other owners of Aussie Cattle Dogs they seem to be very resilient to snake bites, even if it does put them under the weather for a week or so. Sure would have saved me a bunch of money if I would have know that at the time since he was bitten on a Sunday. Emergency Vet bills are expensive.
