Just a quick blog today because I’m very sad. My mate Delta, a Malamute sadly passed away this week after being bitten by one of those moving sticks me Humans call a snake.
This time of year (spring) is when the snakes emerge from a kind of hibernation over winter. In the Perth area the Tiger and Dugite snakes are the most common venomous snakes that can kill not just dogs and cats but humans too if not treated quickly.

Us dogs are just to curious for our own good. One of the very few down sides to living in Australia. I even blogged about that a few years ago before moving to Perth.

Goodbye Delta, have fun running and chasing up there in the sky. We will remember you.

How very sad. We lost a loved cat to a snake a few yrs ago and he was in his outdoor enclosure. We lost our beloved dog of only 8 last week to cancer. All around it’s not a great time. Sorry to hear about your friend. 🤠🐧
