What are the dangers for a small dog sleeping outside in Australia?

Question

This is probably a silly question but I’m taking my chihuahua to Australia with me for 3 months the landlord of the house I’ll br renting won’t allow dogs in the house but said he’s allowed in the garden and can sleep In the shed as long as I keep it clean but I’m worried he might be eaten by a snake or a eagle if I leave him alone he so small how likely is this in Australia I know it’s silly but I’m worried

It is difficult to say without knowing exactly where in Australia you are going or what the conditions of the shed would be. Dangers of this kind are certainly very real in rural areas but in the city they are less common. You may also want to consider the temperature in the shed since parts of Australia can become very hot. This could cause heatstroke in such a small dog.
