Contributed commentary by Sherrie Marie Peterson:

My dog, R’Senal, got bitten by a copperhead snake Sept. 6 around 4:30 p.m. at the Clarksville Greenway.

There were a group of guys that helped my daughter out by picking up our dog and carrying him back to her car as she parked pretty far away! The guys took turns carrying my dog while my daughter ran all the way back to her car and drove it down the Greenway to meet the gentlemen. I am trying to find these awesome guys so I can thank them.

Nashville Vet Specialists-Clarksville took great care of R’Senal at their Exit 4 animal emergency clinic. They took him back to be seen right away.

Also, patrons at the Greenway needs to be advised to keep an eye on their small children and their pets, as this could have happened to anyone!
