Mr. Suriyan Janket shared pictures of his deceased pitbull lying next to a lifeless cobra in Pathum Thani on his Facebook.
The 2-year-old pitbull, named “Nong Hom,” was 3-months pregnant when she encountered the cobra slithering near the family’s rooster coop. As her instincts kicked in, she engaged in a fight with the unwelcome guest and got bitten in her mouth – resulting in the tragic incident.
No one was home
Mr. Janket revealed to Amarin TV that no one was at home when the incident took place. Even their other pitbull in the household prefered playing outside.
When he returned home in the evening, his neighbor alerted him that they found a deceased snake in front of their house. He rushed to check on Nong Hom, who was already lifeless by that time.
Entire family is devastated
One of the pictures shows Mr. Janket hugging Nong Hom’s lifeless body on the ground, revealing the depth of his love for her. He also mentioned that his daughter was deeply affected and spent the evening crying and embracing her deceased furry friend.
Netizens grieve with the owner
The post has been shared over 16,000 times and received more than 2,500 comments. Many of the comments convey sincere condolences to the family, with several commenters being canine owners themselves.
Translation: “I’m so sorry for you. What a heart-wrenching thing to see for any dog lover.”
