Hiking with my terrier (3.5 months) we came around a corner with the pup on a line and about 7' in front of me.....saw he was walking right over a copperhead....yanked him back and all was well. Glad it was not a timber rattler...I need to be more observant/cautious. Lots of copperheads/rattlers around here.
I was very glad he did not get bit....happened too fast for any pictures, I was more concerned with securing the dog and the snake moved right out. Once he was off trail it gets pretty thick. Glad copperheads use laying still as defense #1.
Bad chit can happen real fast....pup never saw the copperhead.
