Sato’s owner, Tanong, recounted the spine-tingling encounter. The drama unfolded just past midday as Tanong was peacefully swaying in a hammock.

Suddenly, the snake made its unwelcome entrance, only to be met by Sato’s immediate barking salvo and daring chase.

Ever the supportive sidekick, Tanong joined the fray, wielding a stick against the venomous foe. Sato’s grit and tenacity triumphed, and the cobra was vanquished despite its venomous assault.

Quick to ensure his furry rescuer’s recovery, Tanong whisked Sato off to the vet. Fortunately, the agile dog dodged serious harm, with only a few glasses of medicated treatment standing between him and a clean bill of health.
