In a startling encounter in Kerala’s Alappuzha, a cobra slithered into a house only to face an unexpected adversary, Rocky, the family’s brave pet dog. The dramatic standoff unfolded as the snake tried to navigate the home, but Rocky quickly stepped in, protecting his family from potential danger.
The cobra slithered into the yard at the house of Subash Krishna in Alappuzha around 1.30 pm on Tuesday.
While Krishna was away working in the Middle East, his wife was at home when their pet dog, Rocky, stepped in to protect her from the intruding cobra. A fierce struggle broke out, and Rocky successfully killed the snake.
When Krishna’s wife came out to the yard after hearing the commotion, she saw the serpent lying dead and noticed Rocky had suffered
a bite, NDTV reported.
After this, she rushed Rocky to a veterinary doctor after which he was referred to several hospitals. A team led by veterinary surgeon Dr. Bipin Prakash successfully treated Rocky, and the dog is now recovering well.
After hearing about Rocky’s bravery from his wife, Krishna also rushed back to Kerala and is now by his side.
