Nope, he wears sandals, with such great confidence, no snake will even try inject venom, imagine you wanting to smack Chuck Norris, same thing we instinctively no better.
If those pygmies don’t get you in the hand or foot they’ll dang sure get you in the wallet. Our Border Collie got tagged by a pygmy the other morning when I put him out. That was a vet bill we’ll be feeling for a while. 
I’m sure that your vet mentioned it, but just in case he or she didn’t. There’s a vaccine for dogs now.If those pygmies don’t get you in the hand or foot they’ll dang sure get you in the wallet.

Oh yeah, they mentioned it. It works too. He was swoll up all the way from the foot to the shoulder and sick as the proverbial poisoned pup. Next day he was fine, but the inverse of the treatment is reflected in dollar signs.
Man I miss mutt dogs with a bar ditch education. You can’t hardly break those kind. And if you give them half regular rations they’ll walk on water right beside you.
It’s in the vernacular of the person talking about that subject. Anything that bites or stings with venom is venomous.
Poisonous is something that you eat that transfers poison to your body.
The two pigmy rattlers I killed only got unalived because my dog wouldn’t get the hell away from them. If it hadn’t been for my Bark Bark of Remarkably Few Brains, I’d have let them go about their merry way, but she wouldn’t leave them alone (she was actively taunting one, sticking her paw out at it). A .22 Colibri dispatched one, and a flying pair of lineman’s pliers terminated the other.If those pygmies don’t get you in the hand or foot they’ll dang sure get you in the wallet.

It’s a crying shame, as they were both beautiful snakes.
HaHa!
it’s not useless unless one is afraid to get up close and personal with the no shouldered critters. It’s amazing how well the zoom on our phones can get us close to them while remaining at a safe distance.
There are no vaccines that will render any creature immune to venoms or toxins.
Ft Sill has few.Copperhead, I don’t think we have them out here; I’ve never seen one. We do have tons of Western Diamondbacks, massasaugas, and Pygmy rattlesnakes.
Edit: from OKsnakes, the range of broadbanded copperheads is most of Caddo county and the north half of Comanche county. I still have never seen one out here
