thank you all. Jack is having good days and not so good days. the good news is not so good appears to the case of it sounding worse than it really is at this point.
Last Thursday his nose got a single large blister on it, about 1 inch by half inch. Vet wanted to draw some fluid and look at it under a microscope for some "markers" that indicate venom. well by the time we got to the vet hospital to do this, the blister hardened. but was cracking just a little so she was still able to get a little fluid. her and one other vet both looked at it and felt whatever it was they saw confirmed a bite.
by Sunday the blister and muzzle swelling were "gone", but today the dead skin started coming off and there are two small new blisters in the corner of his actual nose
good news though is those do not appear to be getting larger and are the only new blisters so far. hopefully the last.
on the raw feeding and diarrhea issues and the apparent resolution this thread was supposed to be about...we continue to see no sigh of diarrhea and Jack continues to enjoy his new RAW diet.
(she is now prevented from doing this whenever possible) and runs around like a much younger dog.
