Watch | Brave pet dog saves 7-year-old girl
When a venomous Eastern diamondback rattlesnake appeared in the backyard of a 7-year-old Florida girl, her German shepherd came to her rescue, refusing to back down despite multiple snakebites. Molly DeLuca was playing with her 2-year-old shepherd, named Haus, when the snake showed up. Haus jumped between them and was bitten three times, suffering damage to his kidneys. Vets are now expecting a full recovery.
