New Snake Mom Doing Her Best

[ButteredNoodle]

Your dog & snake are both adorable & we're glad to have you join us here.

The thing to keep in mind is that while neither of your pets wants to hurt the other, what I could personally envision happening is that your BP could sense the
dog's warmth (remember those heat sensing pits?) & end up sinking his teeth into your sweet dog's nose. It just wouldn't be pretty. (I have 2 older dogs and lots
of snakes too.)

Yep. I probably didn't explain it great before. My dog being around means he's behind a baby gate (being watched over by someone else) that keeps him from getting close while I'm handling her (across the house). Otherwise the noodle is in her tank out of his reach. When I say they can't reach each other and they get along great, I mean it's very impossible for them to come in contact and they ignore each other despite sometimes being able to see one another. I had rats before and it's a very similar protocol. I know better than to take risks and love them both a lot.
