Dogs were barking outside at a home in Scottsdale, and the homeowner went to investigate. She found this large Western Diamondback Rattlesnake under a bush, and got the dogs inside. The snake disappeared, so she called us to come find it. Marissa arrived and was able to locate the snake laid out in the shade a few yards from the bush it was first spotted in. The home has a view fence (without rattlesnake fencing) backing up to native habitat with a large drainage nearby, so a rattlesnake there makes perfect sense.
