My article is on USA Today. It is titled, “9-foot-long anaconda found in Florida neighborhood.” It was found in Florida and that is super scary! Gizmo — a shih tzu — and Teddy — half poodle, half shih tzu — dashed to the side yard to sniff out a large, shiny dark object.

“I wasn’t thinking what it was, because it was so large,” said Remsberg, who trailed behind her dogs.
A nine-foot-long green anaconda reared its head, veering toward the two pooches.
“It raised its head up like it … like snapping at them … like lurching at them to make them back off,” Remsberg said. “I started screaming for the dogs right away.”
Teddy hurried back into the house. Gizmo was still curious, brave or something else.
“He’s the not-so-smart one,” Remsberg said.
Remsberg dialed 911.
“I did not know what it was,” she said. “I knew it was not good. I was just screaming, ‘There’s just this huge, huge snake!'”
Remember to always be cautious in your own back yard.
