I just put one these on the lampshade

We had an AWESOME dog…he loved moles, chipmunks, etc. Turned out he didn’t “do” snakes. You could point the snake out to him and he’d look at you deadpan, like “I don’t see nuffin…watchoo talkin about, boss?”

I’m rather fond of an abino python myself.

Good one

Durango was a german sheppard.

Tough dog, had an encounter with a hedgehog and a wild cat before

But it was a swamp rattlesnake that kissed the poor thing goodbye

Racoon kilt my first ever dog, Bosco. Tough assed little farm dog could fend off a coyote with no problem, but a dog is no match for a coon in the water, especially an older dog like Bosco. Got him around neck and drowned him.

When my brother and I were 9 - 10 years old we used to go down to a nearby creek and turn over rocks until we found a snake… my brother would pick them up by the back of their heads, water moccasins, big copperheads, never got bit. Sometimes he’d bring them home to show our mom and she’d freak out… at one point he had a 20ft Burmese python that just roamed his apartment.

I got bit by a 4-5 ft boa constrictor that belonged to my brother, he was holding it on his arm and I touched it and it flipped around and bit my hand in less than a second… It was like 4 little needle holes on my hand.

If you want to see a really nasty tempered snake check out a “reticulated python.” My brother had bought one from a pet store when we were teenagers… a little smaller than this one and mean as a motherfucker… you let it out and it would be hissing and striking at you the whole time… he didn’t have any special tools to deal with it… he had to take it back and exchanged it for a nice tame ball python lol.
