NOT-SO-HARMLESS NOPE ROPE!!

Okay, so we were sitting at the table, about to eat.
Mom and I look through the window, at about the same time.
I see Minnie, a slightly-feral Jack Russel/Chihuahua mix, on our hill, looking straight at us, wagging her tail. I was about to comment on her wagging tail, and then Mom interrupts.
She saw the SNAKE right in front of Minnie. So my brother runs for his gun, and the rest of us run out the door. Mom yells something, but all I hear is the beginning of "Timber".
I run for the phone so we can take some pictures and for some treats for Minnie.
I come back, 6 or 7 shots later.
The snake is dead, and we confirm that Minnie was indeed blocking a TIMBER RATTLESNAKE from 'her' (actually mine, but she doesn't seem to think so) chickens.
She was risking a venomous bite just for them, and us.
I'm glad we looked out the window.
So, am I the only one who is SO ready for the end of snake season?!?!
