Never know where he'll pop up!
Looks like he got you on the knuckle????
Those lizards are cool!
Do they ever try to bite you?
That's a big rat snake I almost thought it was a bull snake but it looks too dark for a bull snake.
I was waiting for someone to pick up on that! He was pissed off!!!
I used to raise ball pythons. I've seen one or two (maybe more) snake bites! I caught a biig black rat snake at my uncle's place many years ago. I realized I was holding his neck a little too tight... loosened my grip somewhat. He wasn't struggling, so I let him crawl free on my arms, much like you are handling that one in the pics. He never once struck. I kinda wanted to take him home with me, but turned him loose in the woods away from the house. I have a soft spot for rat snakes!
BTW, and OT, best wishes with your dog. I'm with others in saying good job, and I think you have a new best friend for life!!!
