Snake bite clinics are done in Boise, Idaho for a nominal sum of $25. In my vet's opinon and mine, this is the best precaution if you're hunting snake country. I've seldom seen rattlesnakes but if I do I'd kill one and bring my dog to smell him and shock him with enough of a jolt to let him know this is something he will never want to smell again. Different snakes smell differently I'm told so you have to use the snake that's the same type your dog wants nothing to do with.

There is a 'newer' serum the vet says that can help your dog if he's bitten but it's not a 100% vaccine and your dog should go immediately to the vet if bitten. Most of the time it's too darn hot for me to hunt chukars when the snakes are about anyway so I've not had a problem.

An ounce of precaution is = to a pound of cure, IMO
