This dog’s name was ‘Strongheart’. He would greet visitors to Lone Pine as they got off the boat with these animals tagging along for the ride.

"In the 1930s the zoo started a tradition of having a German Shepard with a koala jockey greet guests. This also spawned a spin off with a snake around the dog’s neck to greet guests." Source: www.theanimalfacts.com/go-2-zoo/lone-pine-koala-sanctuary/
Vesna Verencevic said:
This is quite attractive, and unusual friendship between dog, koala, and snake.
