Paula Godwin was out for a walk with Todd her young golden retriever when they encountered a rattlesnake. Todd jumped in front of her and protected her from the snake. He was bitten in the face and had to be rushed to the vet. Todd is going to make it even though he is not fully healed.

It was a brave thing that Todd did. His first instinct would have been to back away from the snake, but his beloved  Paula was in danger and he didn't hesitate.  I hope he makes and full recovery and he deserves every honour he gets.
That's why I adore dogs! Smile
Todd certainly is a brave dog and he did an amazing thing.  Hopefully he will make a full recovery and be back enjoying walks with his person again soon.
You really have to love dogs!
