Heroic Zena, Staffordshire Terrier, saves the day!

(Bannockburn Victoria)

Zena the Staffordshire Terrier is being hailed a hero after the 10 year old pooch jumped on a deadly Tiger snake as it was about to enter the house where three young children were playing at home in Bannockburn near Geelong, Victoria. Their mother saw the reptile first and started screaming which prompted the children to follow her lead.

It was at this stage that Zena took matters into her own paws by jumping on the one metre long snake breaking its spine with her jaws.

In the 10 years the Schulz family have lived in Bannockburn they have never had a snake in the house.

Amazingly this heroic dog has lived to tell the tale! Since the incident happened, Zena has been spoiled and treated by her family to a cake!
