Hi
My sister in law's dog had a bit of a run in with a rinkhals yesterday. They live on a farm close to Grahamstown and when they got home they found their Malamute had one swollen/closed eye. They washed it out and put in eye drops not knowing what it was. They then found the Rinkhals outside in the yard and took the dog to the Vet.
The Vet washed the eye and couldn't find any bite marks so they took the dog home. At home the dog started having fits. They took the dog to the vet again. The Vet gave some antivenom and put the dog on a drip overnight. The dog seemed fine today, but had some more seizures later on. They went to fetch some medication from the Vet again today that the dog has to stay on for the month...
Any ideas why the dog is getting seizures? The seizures only started happening quite a few hours after the run in with the snake.
