365/107 ~ The One That Got Away ~

Stormie chased a black snake out of my garden today.  He was a pretty good sized one, so there weren't too many places for him to hide.

He slides between her front paws as she destroys tills the soil around my Lavender...such a helpful dog... *sigh*...


He finally escaped her clumsy deadly grasp, and found a safe refuge under this wooden chest on the porch...


I thought I'd pop out there a bit later to see if he was sunning again, but he was still not quite sure if the crazy dog was about coast was clear...

  1. hilarious commentary! I found 3 snakes in my backyard yesterday around the garden. I think it's time to get rid of my winter log pile!

  2. Love Boxers!! We had two when I was growing up (only one at a time).

    FYI, black snakes are good to have around. It's good you have one hanging around.

  7. Neat that you've got a snake nearby - and whilst sorry it was a source of frustration for your dog, I'm glad that your dog didn't succeed. The blow by blow commentary made me laugh :)
