This is definitely not a blind snake, unfortunately the image does not give enough detail to be sure which elapid it is

Thanks for all your help with this. Our original thought that it was a blind snake was because of the underside patterning which matched the "reptiles and snakes a.c.t." book

Lynda your mother's dog are at some risk from snake bite. The Canberra Times recently had an article on measures that can be taken to reduce the risk. https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/6462980/protect-your-pets-from-snakes/?cs=14259

Yes, I realise! I will talk to her about it. Third or fourth snake it has killed in last year
