An Arizona woman was saved from a rattlesnake bite on Friday — when her puppy jumped to the rescue.
Paula Godwin wrote on Facebook that she was up early to venture out on a hike near Seventh Street in Anthem — north of Phoenix — when she almost stepped on the reptile.
Todd, her “hero of a puppy,” courageously jumped in front of its owner’s leg where she “surely would have got bit.” As a result, the snake bit the dog right on the face.
