WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M NOT PROTECTED AGAINST RATTLESNAKES?

A rattlesnake bite is a veterinary emergency. The bite can be serious or even fatal and the treatment is very expensive.
Rattlesnakes live in a variety of habitats. With the warming weather, the snakes will on the move. Your dog could be at risk.
There is a vaccine that can help stimulate your dog's immunity against the venom. The vaccine is not a prevtative, but will help decrease the damage to the tissue, possible decrease the treatment required and buy your pet more time for you to get them to the veterinary clinic.
So make your appointment now to get your dog's yearly rattlesnake vaccine booster or to start the rattlesnake vaccine series.
