my dog just got bitten by a rattlesnake, and I'm the only one out of 2 other brothers and my parents that was willing to stay with her, since we aren't going to take her to the vet.She's just sitting their, panting really hard, obvious that it hurts from the way she holds her hind leg, and I can't do anything but try and comfort her. My brother just said that sleep was more important, and went off to go play a game.

Try to keep her warm, it helps.
