Remember the sum and warmth brings this snake to life and possibly death to your dog. Please watch your dog when outside in the countryside.

Spring is in the air and it is glorious out there 🔆 Sunny days at this time of year are when one of our champion species, the adder, starts to come out of hibernation. This means it is really important to keep your dogs close to you when you are in nature reserves. Any disturbance, from humans or dogs, can be disruptive for adders who are at an important point of their breeding cycle. They are also venomous so it is in your dog's best interests to keep well clear of them!

If you want to learn more about this fascinating creature then you could watch our video, which tells you about its lifecycle, characteristics and more:

As the weather warms up adders will be coming out of hibernation. Adders are most commonly found on dry, sandy heaths, sand dunes, moorlands and woodland edges.

Adults adders are up to two feet long and have a black or brown zigzag pattern along their back. Adders may bite in self defence if disturbed by a dog (or human). Most bites to dogs occur on the face or legs. If you are walking in a known high risk area, keep your dog on a lead.

Signs of an adder bite can include rapid and worsening swelling around the bite site, pain, vomiting, lethargy, bleeding and collapse.
What should you do if your pet has been bitten by an adder?
🐍 Do not interfere with the bite or apply a tourniquet.
🐍 Do not kill the snake – it is a protected species. Leave it alone.
🐍 Carry your dog back to the car if possible, and contact a veterinary surgery for advice. If you are on holiday in a high risk area make sure you have contact details of a local vet saved on your phone.
