Yep plenty of the brown snakes in the Bendigo/Heathcote region too. My greyhound trainer has a creek and a dam on his property. Averages about 3 dead brown snakes a year. There was a black snake that met a greyhound last year. Snake dead, greyhound alive. Old greyhound "Katy" seem to lure them into her pen. Doesn't matter which pen she is in. I have a brood bitch up there lily who is in an open 25m run with kennel. Is there anyway I can snake proof her pen ?
