You know how some stories just make you chuckle. Well, despite poor Bindi's harrowing end in life, I just had to laugh at this one.
Patty Buntine became worried when her Maltese terrier-cross Bindi failed to show up for breakfast at her home in Australia's Northern Territory. "She was always there so I got worried and went to look for her," she said. "I went around the side of the house and that's when I found the snake. It couldn't move and had its head up in a striking position.
"It's belly was bulging - it looked like a great big coconut was inside it. I knew straight away that it had ate Bindi. "I felt terrible - it's not very nice at all to think my little dog went that way." She told the Northern Territory News that three-year-old Bindi was a lively and agile dog - and was shocked the reptile managed to strike her.
"She was a little smarty pants and would race away if she knew you were going to bath her or take her to the vet or something," she added.
"She was always darting all over the place. I don't know how she didn't realise this thing was creeping up on her."
All I can say is that maybe little Bindi was not quite so agile or such a smarty pants as her owner believed.
