My dog may have been bit by this snake a few minutes ago. I don’t know anything about snakes but research indicates just a water snake. Should I bring her to the vet? No punctures seen and she is acting normally, but we are freaking out.

Looks like snake with a frog’s head or a frog with a snake’s body.
Either way, the dog will be fine.

Dogs handle snake bites very well. Ive seen plenty with cottonmouth bites and it just slows them down for a day or two. Never seen one have any kind of long lasting effects.

Had a dog get popped by a snake(probably a moccasin, lived near the water) and his face swelled up like a melon and foamed at the mouth. We called vet and got him a shot. If your dog is fine , I’d guess it’s definitely a water snake.

Had a dog that was bit by a baby copperhead. I walked right over it, didn’t see it, and the dog was following me and the snake jumped up and bit her on the leg. Gave her some Benadryl and she was fine. She swelled up pretty bad though.

Viper shaped head and pupils that are elongated vertically are the 2 identifying traits I look for in a water moccasin. Your pic has neither so i vote harmless water snake
