I had to kill a snake today. It was a dugite and my puppy had seen it in the sandpit. He goes and digs in there and I didn't want him to get bitten. Had to do it quickly but not a nice job. I would prefer to put it somewhere else in the bush but sometimes you get no choice and have to act fast. Puppy safe and sound thank god! Sue
