The Scoop: Dog Survives Rattlesnake Bite in Bronx

July 17, 2008

Imagine taking your dog for a daily walk . . . and encountering a rattler!

If they'd been strolling in Florida, I'd be less surprised – I'm glad I've never seen a snake on the streets of NYC!

That is crazy! Hopefully they will find the snake before it gets out of the zoo area. Thank goodness the dog was saved! And how nice that they will cover the charge for the anti venom :)

Oh my goodness that's terrible. I don't think I would know what to do if that happened to one of my dogs. That pup is lucky to have the owner that he does!

That is amazing! That poor puffy bully, but I'm so glad he'll be alright. My friend in Florida recently had her dog die due to rattle snake bite.
