Dogs Kill Big Black Snake
Finally what I have promised and what you have been waiting for; CB, Patches and the rest of the pack corner a large black snake by our pond late this morning.
The snake was sun bathing on a large stone, as I and the pack approached it dashed under a large flat stone. It was merely seconds before the pack had rounded the snake into a corner. Patches bravely dives under the stone boulder, CB immediately follows on her heels. Their bodies were completely under the stone, I couldn’t even see their tails. I started calling “Patches, CB get out of there”, afraid they would get bitten.
CB began to pulling and tugging, his butt popping in and out from under the rock. I am not sure if the snake and a hold to something or if Patches and CB were in a game of tug a war under the stone.
Suddenly, out they emerged, CB with snake in mouth, Patches now grabs the free end of the snake and they beginning pulling, tearing and tugging.
Patches is vigorously shaking her hand, CB never loses his hold on the snake and then they rip the snake into pieces. The excitement was over as soon as it started.
It is thrilling to see our dogs in action each and every time they begin to hunt for snakes. Our CB in particular hates snakes and never passes the opportunity to rip a snake in half.
Here is a TIP that we use every year, spread moth balls out around your outside living area and this will help deter snakes from bedding down in your ponds and stone flower beds. In our situation we live in the Mountains of Tennessee and a few of our snakes cross our moth ball border.
