Rattle Snake VS Cisco


Shawn and Kyle took a ride up by the North Ogden divide and when they got back to the trailer they noticed Cisco's front leg had started to swell. As they unsaddled and kept watching him it kept getting bigger and bigger. They loaded up and headed straight to the gas station to get some ice. Went down to the barn and it was still swelling so Shawn took out the clippers and shaved a little spot on his cannon and sure enough there were 2 fang marks. Funny thing is they never even seen or heard the snake. Cisco never spooked or anything. They took him straight to the vet and got him a bunch of antibiotics and pain meds. He had to have 4 shots a day for 5 straight days. After about the 3rd day he was on to it and did not want nothing to do with it. He's doing great now and everything looks and feels fine!
