Look What Tori Was Playing With

[CathyBogart]

OMG !! Is that a rattle snake???

Not even close

He sure picked the wrong yard today! Silly Tori, he was just there to eat the slugs!!

[chocolatepuppy]

Yikes Tori! I doubt the snake will come back after being tossed around by Tori. I've relocated a few or simply chased them out of the yard and never saw them again. At least not yet.

[KYS]

I had to take a second look because I could not believe what I saw.
A SNAKE! Tell Tori that is not a toy.
Glad snake and dog are fine. LOL

[Pembroke_Corgi]

Yikes!! One time my mom's cat brought in a live snake into the house that we never caught...

[cloverfdx]

Oh My Dog Tori . Glad both canine and reptile are ok .

[Uabassoon]

I would freak out if I saw Payson playing with a snake!

[Vette]

That looks like the King snakes we get around here. dont even know there there till they move and scare the crap out of you. LOL good thing there harmless to humans and dogs.

[Sevaede]

Oh my goodness, Tori! Stick to four-legged friends, okay?
And I don't think you need to worry about him coming back, Robin, I am pretty sure he learned his lesson.

Haha, my sentiments exactly!

Garter snakes are GOOD critters to have around. They cut down on the little critter population and keep them from damaging your garden. We have one that lives in our backyard.


I don't know what Lady would do with a snake, but I'm pretty sure the snake wouldn't enjoy the experience.

Alden is a lot more game than I. Coming from a country full of poisonous snakes, I tend to leave them well and truly alone.

heheh silly girl

My old friend was scared to death of snakes.. If she was in her yard playing & she stumbled into a snakes path she would yell & do a stupid dance in fear & pointing to the snake.. Well her old dog picked up on her fear & she would come to the rescue & kill the snake. She was a smaller dog (30p) & she was taking on 4 foot garder snakes & 2 foot black rat snakes. I felt bad for the snakes & so did she, but when she got scared she couldn't control herself.. I usually tried to get to the snake first, as Molly the dog would shake it & fling it 20 feet away & then I had to fight her for the snake.. not easy with a small fast dog. & the freakest thing, is that Molly would carry the snake out of the yard into the to bush & leave its body there she was one smart gal.

Oh Silly Tori, looks like you thought mom bought you a rubber snake as a toy!
I've never seen a Gartner snake that big!!

[Jadapit]

Silly Tori, a snake isnt a play toy. We have a lot of garter snakes where we live my fur kids got hold of one last summer. The poor snake didnt make it.

[lvpets2002]

I'm pretty sure it's a harmless garter snake

No that is not a Rattle Snake == is a garter or grass snake & very harmless.. Trust me living in Tx on a farm I saw my share of Rattlers..

Your little visitor is lucky Tori was only playing!! Simba killed a snake a month or so ago, and he was so proud he rolled on top of it's dead body. It was so gross and sad. He had blood all over his cheeks.

Of course, I was gone and my parents had let him out by himself.
