Re: Snakes + other animals?
My Zelda great dane and rainbow my reticulated python were out at the same time. The dogs know that if I have a snake that getting near me pisses me off so they tend to keep their distance. I was sitting on the couch one day holding Rainbow and Zelda walks up from behind and Zelda gives her a big sloppy lick across the top of her head. Zelda never licks anything. Rainbow just sat there like "What just happened?" and froze for a moment. Now I keep the dogs up when I have them out. Not worth the risk. Both of them could hurt the other and that is not a fight I want to be in the middle of.

One of my cats has killed wild garter snakes in the yard a few times. I'm not sure how things would go down if he met one of my BPs, but I don't want to find out!

Yes please don’t risk it pretty please. For the sake and safety of your pets. Better safe than sorry. So sounds like a good idea [emoji3]

I don't let my cat interact with Dean but she gets freaked out by his sheds :P I had one laying on the table and she stared at it for a solid five minutes and proceeded to leap in the air and run away when I said "What are you doin'?" :rofl:
