I had him out while the pasta was boiling. THat doesn't require attention at all. Wheatley had my undivided attention.Originally Posted by voodoolamb
Yes. I should have. It was a huge mistake to think my roommate would do what he always does. Besides that, the dog usually gets really excited when I come downstairs, so there was honestly no way I could have made any other assumption other than he was outside. I will be more careful in the future.
....? My hair isn't always in a pony tail... Adding in details into your own mental picture is fine, but I didn't wrap him around my hair. He was around my neck and my hair was like a curtain. I'm sorry if this isn't a suitable quick solution, but I was trying to get the dog to behave, keep the pasta from over-boiling, and keep the snake out of reach of the dog.
Well I'm glad it's not your dog then. Because I don't tolerate any dog getting into my personal space without permission, let alone dashing at me. It's a mark of a very badly trained and hyperactive dog that will rush at you and jump on you. He deserves the smack he got for not listening to commands. You act like I punched him? I smacked him. Smacks hurt, sure. But they don't break bones. Discipline is important for dogs as well as children, and even horses.
Spoiling your dog is as bad as spoiling your horse or child.
As for snakes, yes, it's been made plain that I'm a big of a greenhorn when it comes to experience with them. But to be fair, there is a lot of mixed information out there. Go take a look. What works for you isn't what works for HLC Python, 1SoftKiss, or SnakeBytes. Not 100%. These snake owners know their stuff, and while some information may come off as a little strange, I can see why they see what they see. Does this make sense?
But believe what you want to.
