The following is a dramatic recreation.
Last week, the Man and the dogs spotted a garter snake sunning himself on the front rocks. After a lot of barking he disappeared.
The following day, while the 3 were out again, and Hailey got lucky, she caught the snake by the tail and started to shake.
The Man yelled drop it and our girl did. The snake slithered away.
Lady decided to call the snake "Dead" because that is what he is going to be if he keeps coming around!
professor lee...... you are a hero, we are deep deep impressed. our mama thinks that is a darned good name for that visitor ;O)

There ya go - let that snake know who is boss, Hailey!
ReplyDeleteMax and Jake were our snake killers.. a couple of shakes and Dead. so that is a good name. We tried to protect our black snakes, but it was hard. glad it is not one that can dead a dog
ReplyDeleteWe have lots of garter snakes around our patio. Millie likes to stick her nose in the holes they hide in. Our pawrents warn us that someday we might get a bit on the nose. It's a good thing those kinds of snakes aren't venomous but their bite could still hurt.
ReplyDeleteAMEN to Lady!! I respect them until their enter my space after that all bets are off

Angel Thunder Dunder would always find those snakes in our yard. He would grab them and toss them up in the air over and over. He sure was a silly boy.
