Four dogs protecting their owner go head-to-head with an 8ft venomous snake… but who will come out on top? 

These four dogs went head-to-head with a deadly 8ft King Cobra that had slithered into their owner’s garden.

The brave pets nipped at the poisonous serpent in an attempt to get it to leave, taking care not to give it a chance to bite.

The dogs’ owner was terrified it would enter her house in Phitsanoluk, Thailand, and ordered them to attack.

Thankfully they managed to drive the snake away, and were not harmed.

Although King Cobras can kill with a single bite, they typically avoid confrontation with humans.

If they do succeed in injecting their venom, the correct antiserum will fight the effects.

The woman who filmed the video said she always has a vet on call in case the dogs are bitten.
