They wont tell you if the snake is ok. 'Cause snakes are "evil" in other peoples eyes. But yes, the dog should never have been taken off a leesh.

Both parties are to blame equally. What if the guy had a pet hamster not a python and the dog ate him? Also if those people got extra money because they set a spot for him at dinner and had the dog at the wedding, that would be absurd.

For the person that asked, I believe the python was on the apartment grounds wich makes it private property!

Yea the whole ordeal stinks! Its a bunch of malarky the way they reported it just because like you all said it was a python and not another dog or something like that. I think to, that both parties were in the wrong! A burm or retic should not be out and about in an apartment complex without being supervised at all times. Also if the python was missing, lost, esacped whatever you want to call it then IMO he should have notified the residents! The dog sholdnt have been off the leash and since he was you kinda have to expect something bad to happen espically in a place that has cars going about constantly kids running around etc..

One more thing!!!! Corn should not be added to any type of dish, if its not on the cob or by itself then it shouldnt be!! lol

Actually unless the python was directly owned by the apartment building owner it's not on private property per se. It's on communal green area that a tenant cannot consider "his" therefore should not have allowed a snake of that size loose on (or any other pet unless specifically marked as a "dog run area" or that like). Besides which who in their right mind has an 11 foot snake outside. I wonder if it had gotten loose? I think both parties are responsible. The snake owner for being stupid enough to allow a snake of that size loose in an openly accessible area (whatever the excuse for it being outside like that) and the dog owners for not having the brains to keep their dog under leash control. The judgement is a bit ridiculous though if it was in any way based on the fact that the dog ate at their table and attended their wedding.

However you look at it, it leaves yet another bad impression about large snakes and those that own them. :(

Secondly, do people from there walk around with golf clubs normally? :P That dude must be like inspector gadget or something. Go go gadget golf club!

I meant it is private property in the means that it is owned by the company that runs the apartment building thus making it private property. Whatever the apartment building wants to call a grassed area comunial etc that is there discresion.
COuldnt agree more with you on all the other stuff tho!!

Have a good weekend! :)

Ok if the dog had ran onto the property and bite and killed the snake could the snake owner sue the dog owner??? Let me know how that would have worked out !?!

Sounds to me like the idiot hit his dog w/ the golf club when trying to kill the snake and instead killed his dog.

And excuse me but setting a place at the table for Thanksgiving and the ring bearer at there wedding, there whack jobs for sure. Snake should have eaten him :)
