Keep your eyes peeled for adders 🐍

🐍 Adders 🐍

With the glorious weather recently, we have seen an expected increase in calls regarding adder bites.

The adder (Vipera berus berus) is the only venomous snake native to the UK, and is also found across northern Europe. It is a protected species in the UK. Adders are most commonly, but not exclusively, found on dry, sandy heaths, sand dunes, rocky hillsides, moorlands and woodland edges. The clinical signs of an adder bite can include rapid and progressive swelling around the bite site, pain, lethargy, vomiting, bruising, bleeding and collapse.

What should you do if your pet has been bitten by an adder?
❌Do not panic.
❌Do not interfere with the bite.
❌Do not apply a tourniquet.
❌Do not attempt to touch or catch the snake.
❌Do not kill the snake – it is a protected species.
❌If practical, carry your dog to your car and go to your veterinary surgeon - do not delay seeking advice even if your pet is well as things can change quickly.

Adders are not aggressive and generally only bite when provoked. They hibernate in the winter and as a result most bites occur in the summer. Pets are frequently bitten on the leg, head or neck. If your pet has been bitten by an adder (even if you did not see the snake or are not sure what happened) – contact your vet immediately. Your vet will examine your pet to determine the location of the bite and extent of the swelling.

Veterinary professionals can call us any time on 02073 055 055 if required for assistance with managing cases of adder bites. We also hold a list of antivenom stockists across the UK. Please note that antivenom is not indicated in all cases.

About Casey and One Girl and Your Dog

Growing up I was animal mad. I had many pets over the years and finally when I was eight we were allowed a family dog. I finished school and went on to study at Merrist Wood college where I completed a course in Animal Management and then went on to complete a Foundation Degree in Animal Management.

When the time came for me to leave and find a job the country was in a recession and there weren’t many jobs available in the field I was now qualified in. Like most people I ended up in a job which I wasn't passionate about and found myself working in an office for the next 8 years. I then decided enough was enough and it was time that I followed my dreams and set up my own business One Girl and Your Dog.

I know how hard it can be to work full time and the worries of leaving your dog at home. Struggling to juggle time and ensure they are given the time they deserve, whether that be a walk or some company during the day whilst you are out was always something which was on my mind when working and leaving my border collie at home.
