I had one get snake bit last Saturday. She swelled up real bad around the neck and head. I'm sure glad I took the collar off her as soon as I got her home. I think It would have choked her to death with all the swelling. We have shot her up twice with Penicillin and she's been given Benadryl for the first 4 days.

She's acting and looking like her old self this afternoon.
