Killed my 1st rattle snake today

I'll find out about the dog tomorrow and update
Generally, if the dog was bit in the front half of it's body, it'll be okay. Growing up on a 30 acre rand in Texas, we had to treat lots of snake bites for dogs. Usually, they swell up, and are sore, but get better.

I hope so when I put the dog in her SUV he seemed ok but it had only been 5 mins since the bite
 
I'm normally a tree hugger when it comes to killing snakes. But I have 2 kids and 4 dogs. Well done!

Yesterday I caught a baby King Snake in my yard. I put it back after showing the kids. Maybe someday it will l eat a venomous snake.
 
I killed a good size rattler two weeks ago in my neighbors yard. I live in town and wasnt sure the legalities of shooting even though the mayor was the one who brought the snake to my attention. I think I scared him when he asked if I had a gun and suddenly produced a Glock 17 from a tshirt. I beat the snake to death with a stick but completely had my mind made up if it came down to me getting bit or discharging a firearm in the city or letting a rattle snake go under my friends daughters house I was willing to pay my fine.
