I'm no dog expert but does a silky-terrier cross qualify as a chihuahua?
If it does, judging from the bulge in the snake, it's the Jolly Green Giant
of Chihuahuas.
A Silky should stand 9-10 inches at the shoulder
Wait a minute, they were cops, so they were trained nervous people with
guns, (and an unlimited ammunition allowance).

Obviously you've never seen a python (or a chihuahua), in action.
Unless the dog has had a close encounter with a snake it will have no
