Using McDowells for a snake bite - McDowell's Herbal Treatments

I’m so grateful for the support and education that I have received for our beautiful girl, Billie. 

Billie was bitten by a brown snake last year and was asymptomatic for over 12 hrs before then becoming totally paralysed, she was rushed to the vet, receiving two doses of antivenim and being on fluids all day. I chose to bring her home to nurse her myself over night as the vet was unstaffed overnight.

I reached out to McDowells during the day while she was in the vets and was given so much support including herds and a link to a site with points I could use on her ears and head to keep her calm, I used these points over night, it really helped.

She couldn’t even keep her own tongue in her mouth let alone move anything and was becoming distressed as she struggled to breath. She had to go back to the vet to have fluids all day the following day as she was still paralysed (nil by mouth) and return again the next day for review also.

She’s back to her happy self, took a few weeks to get mobile and a month or so to get rid of her stiffness but now her mobility has fully recovered and she’s racing around like the crazy Staffy she is.
