Man, if it works that's a small price to pay. I'm gonna check with some of my buddies at sqdog.com to ask if they've heard of it. We are all straight treedog hunters over there, so I would think our dogs generally have a little more "kill grit" than the gentleman's birddog (not an insult, it's just the difference in breeding). Our dogs want to get in the face of anything and kill it if they can, so snakes are no exception. I'll get back with some of what they say. The way I understand it, a benydrill delivered through a good old Vienna Sausage is about as good as anything for a quick remedy. I hear this and then penicillin delivered shortly after will save most dogs. Keep the Vienna sausage can and your benydrill in a plastic bag in your pack while hunting. But, yes, I think a snake bite vaccine that actually worked for $14 is a must. I want to know more.
