One more pic
behind the house at the pond.
What kind of snake is it?
Are you sure you dog is o.k.?
Even non poisonous bites can get yuckified.
What makes a better lightning rod than a graphite fishing rod? NOTHING!

This is a water mocassin, also referred to as a cottonmouth. I checked the dog over real well and could find no bites. She is acting fine, showing no indication of being bit. If she was bit I would be seeing some sort of indication by now as to swelling or her favoring a particular area by licking the wound.
I killed another one a little bigger than this two nights ago. On Sunday my neighbor and I encountered one that was twice as big as this one. That snake was able to get away before I could dispatch (Kill) it.
Good dog!! Very good dog. We lost a bench legged beagle to a copperhead bite, and of course my horse had to get bit on the nose by one. he is a very friendly (if a little dim) horse. That was un fun.
Be safe!

Short and sweet. (I would move).
It is not enough that a man should toil and provide,but that he be granted the pleasure of fishing with a friend.
