Okay, so you didn't know the dog was in the house. I personally know how rambunctious and unpredictable puppies are I have 3 dogs, two off them are under the age of 2. That doesn't excuse the fact that your snake could have been seriously injured.
You need to make sure your snake is safe at all times. Whenever Karma is out, the door is shut sometimes locked, and all tight spaces are closed away and all other animals are on the other side of the door. Honestly, the bottom line is I don't think you're responsible enough for a snake. If you wanted a pet that you could hold and play with all the time and not get stressed and all that, maybe some type of rodent would have been better. Not that I would want any kind of animal going through what Wheatley is...
And on top of that, there are people here trying to help you and it seems like all you want to do is justify your actions and tell everyone what your opinion is. Oh well. I've seen it happen, owners think they're right all the time and then when the animal gets hurt they start trying to take advice when they should have been doing that in the first place.![]()
