    I own a 2 lbs Chihuahua and well over 60 snakes including a 24lbs blood python, my dog has never been in any danger.

    Apparently those people are clueless about Ball Pythons and clueless about responsible pet ownership period.

    Re: Not allowed to foster Pugs because they are afraid my ball python will kill the p
    I have now been turned down by the only other pug rescue even remotely near me (in OR not even in WA for ****s sake)
    Got an even more ignorant answer (and the bad spelling is ALL them)

    -----------
    I realize there are many snake lovers in this world but I just don't feel comfortable having them share their home with a pug. Don't care that your snake is harmless, it's still a 4 foot python...don't care that it only eats frozen thawed rodents, and stays in a secure uv in a "SEPARATE ROOM that is ALWAYS closed" It is still an invironment that is not best shared with a pug
    -----------

    I still want to foster some other small breeds but I'm not going to try for a while...pretty damned discouraged right now.

    Its really really sad that these dogs are living in cages instead of being fostered/adopted in actual homes that they would get love, attention, treats, walks, kisses, and hugs all day because of ignorance like this. I really don't know how I would have reacted if it were me getting those emails.

    Ps I've had dogs, cats, and ferrets all living in the same home as my snakes for almost 10 years now. I've never ever had an issue. People are STUPID plain and simple.

    I worry more for my snake when my cat is around... The cat will swat at my snakes so I have to make sure she's not around when I'm holding my snakes... While she's trying to swat the snakes away, my snake is just cruisin and sniffin around.. Completely oblivious..


    Sorry tigress. Snobs suck :(

    Wow, that sucks. :mad: I agree, the pug could probably defend itself PRETTY well if the snake attacked it. heh, and I have a rat too, and she's albiet fiesty!
