So any of you have dogs in the same household, what measures to you go to that assures you no escapes?
I have a German Shepherd and a Rhodesian Ridgeback and haven't had any trouble with them in regards to my snakes. The worst thing that my Rhodesian did when I was handling one of my BPs, was lick it.

I do have PVC enclosures that have glass sliding doors so the only way my snakes are getting out is if I forget to close them.
