A beloved police dog has died after being bitten by a venomous snake in Texas during on-duty training on Wednesday, sending the Baytown Police Department into mourning over the special K-9. Lenin, who couldn't be saved from the bite, served as the department's first bomb and gun detection dog, and was one of eight K-9 units, local news station ABC 13 reported. No details were revealed about how the incident unfolded or the species of snake that bit Lenin. Snakes tend to come out of hibernation during warmer months to seek prey and therefore could often encounter animals or pets along the way.
