Why wouldnt he think he isn't being protected? It's just a freaking 2 foot long snake?? Hell take a better look at the pic, can't u see there is someone behind him?
Most dogs don't let people put other animals on them without having trust. It also goes for dogs letting kids "ride" them. My lab pit x has the same look most of the time, unless there's food out lol. All I have to say is nice looking dog, nice looking snakes. But all this thread has turned into is fighting about "oh the snake this, the snake that" or oh that poor dog. Grow up people, everyone is different, reefwars was just showing a couple cute pictures. Get over it.

its true ,tonka is trained very well and he reacts very well to new animals be it a dog or a snake or a bird he has complete trust in me. as anyone can see in the picture clarence is behind on the incase that something was to go wrong even though the chances are very slim.


the snakes dont see dog as food so unless the dog was playing with mice it wont bite same as with a human.

if for some reason tonka was to tense up or panic and the snake did constrict its actually very easy to get him off by simply untieing him from the tail.they release easily when coached from the back



trust me guys no harm came to tonka or the snake and they were both watched very closely, they are never left alone and always monitored.
