Absolutely. I had a Jack Russell (named Batman) who, during his lifetime, killed 5 Mozambique Spitting Cobra (Naja mossambica) that I know of. He developed a technique where he got hold of the back of their heads. Unfortunately, after a long and successful career as a snake killer, at the age of 14yrs, Cobra #6 got him and he died in my arms on the steps of the vet’s surgery at 7pm one Sunday evening. Not a bad way for an old warrior to go, I suppose.

This is us, on our way to the vet after being spat in the eye by a cobra.
A great dog. RIP Batman x
