Pit Bulls save children from copperhead snake lurking in their yard

While pit bulls might sometimes get a bad rap, these two pups are being hailed as heroes after they rescued a youngster from a copperhead snake.
Last week, Slayer and Paco the pit bulls were playing in the yard of their home with their owner's grandchildren: 4-year-old Zayden and 1-year-old Mallory.
As the dogs were playing with the kids, however, they suddenly became transfixed on something in the grass. The dogs' owner, Melissa Butt, says that since the pitties are very well-trained, she became alarmed when they would not stop barking at the unknown disturbance.
