I've had several dogs get bitten by rattlesnakes, but they have survived. When my husband was a boy, his big boxer wouldn't let him go into some brambles after a rabbit. He saw in the moolight that it was standing over a rattler that kept biting him. The dog laid on the porch for a week, wouldn't eat or drink, then got well, then got stolen by a nieghbor.

Here is a picture of the opposite--a kingsnake eating a cottonmouth in our dog yard. My son took the picture in almost complete dark. The digital camera supplied enough light without using the flash.
