snakes in the countryside (sam roi yot)

We live in the countryside near Sam Roi Yot and Lucky is a schnauzer who loves to dig everywhere. Last month she start barking at the grass behind the house and I went out with the torch. Was a small green snake, not poisonous I think, but I did not want to check so I call the neighbour who knows snakes. Some tips from me. Walk with the torch after dark, always. Keep the grass short around the house. Don't let the dog put her nose in holes or piles of wood. A snake bite on a dog is very serious and the vet is far, so know the number of the nearest clinic before you need it.
