This week’s segment features Rebel the 2 year old dachshund and talks about our May special, rattlesnake vaccines!! 🐍 Rebel came to us a few months ago for a severely swollen face with a bite wound on the side of his nose. Unfortunately, Rebel had been bitten by a venomous snake! After some supportive care to counteract the effects of the snake venom, Rebel was feeling much better and had returned to his normal happy self. Here at Emerson Animal Hospital we carry the rattlesnake vaccine. This is an annual vaccine that introduces small amounts of Crotalus Atrox Toxoid to your pet so that when they are bitten by a venomous snake, they can mount an appropriate immune response to the venom. This vaccine is not just for rattlesnakes, this includes snakes in the Crotalus family providing a broad range of protection for many of the venomous snakes that we have in our area. For the month of May we are offering 15% off the rattlesnake vaccine!! Give us a call today at (662)524-4155 to schedule your pet to receive their vaccine and get them protected! 🐍🐾
