When Falcon met a viper.... And results from Finnish Sighthound Associations Specialty

A week ago a viper bit Falcon in his neck. He got massive swelling, and was of course at the vet for IV for several hours. He seems to be doing fine now, swelling is down and he is back to his own goofy self. We still have to do blood tests when it is two weeks from the bite to see if the venom has damaged his kidneys or heart.

Falcon also turned one year yesterday, congrats to our baby boy!
