A woman is urging fellow dog owners to carry 'adder packs' and emergency rescue slings after her beloved pooch Koda was bitten by a poisonous snake.
Mum Paula was out walking with her daughter Amy and two dogs, Koda and Willow, in Northumberland National Park, when Koda was suddenly attacked in the grass, reports Chronicle Live.
Thankfully, Paula acted fast and had an 'adder pack' in the car - which contains an ice pack, a sterile saline pod, two antihistamine tablets and a 'What to do guide'.
