My dog was bitten by a coral snake a few years ago, she survived, although has never been quite the same mentaly as before the bite. Since survival of a coral bite is fairly rare, Ive been unable to get any information from vets on any potential heath problems we may find in the future. Neurological, renal system etc.
If anyone out there knows, or can tell me where to go to find out Id appreciate it a lot. There seems no data available on this subject. Since Ive been asked before, YES it was absolutely 100% a coral snake.
Thanks!

All side effects would be neurological in origin. Long lasting muscle weakness is the most prominent in untreated bites. After a year and half though, I would be surprised if there were any remaining problems.
