If you are like us and take your dog everywhere with you over summer, Vitamin C needs to be an addition to your First Aid Kit for snake bites.
Vitamin C has been scientifically proven to counter-act the oxidative effects of Snake Bite venom, potentially giving you and your dog more time to get to an Emergency Vet for Antivenom. This is crucial if you are on holidays with your dog, out in the bush on a hike, or even simply further than five minutes away from a 24hr vet.
Proven dosage in cases of snake bites is 20mL of Vitamin C, every 20 minutes, subcutaneously (under the skin). BM would choose loose skin from near our dogs neck, simply gather a pinch and inject just under the skin.
BM Vitamin C Kit comes with a 100mL bottle of Troy Vitamin C, plus a needle and syringe for use.
