This species is widely distributed in Southeast Asia, and is recognized to occur across Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippine islands, as well as Singapore, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos. In the Philippines, this species has been documented from the islands of Basilan, Culion, Dinagat, Leyte, Luzon, Mindanao, Palawan, Polillo, Sibutu, and Panay, as well as the Sulu Archipelago.

Kroon (1973) investigated morphological variation in the genus Boiga, a group of largely arboreal Southeast Asian snakes, and concluded that the name Boiga cynodon was being applied to two distinct species. The name was properly applied to snakes in the Philippines, Borneo, Java, and Sumatra and in the Malay Peninsula north to the Isthmus of Kra. North of the Isthmus of Kra in the Malay Peninsula, east to Vietnam, and north and west to Bengal and Assam is a second species which Kroon described as Boiga ocellata. Pauwels et al. (2005) later concluded that B. ocellata was a junior synonym of B. siamensis. According to Olov & Ryabov (2002), B. cynodon is known from Indonesia (Nias, Mentawai Islands, Sumatra, Riau Archipelago, Bangka, Billiton, Borneo, Java, Bali, Sumbawa, Flores), Malaysia (peninsular and Borneo), Singapore, Penang Island, Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand, eastern India, and the Philippines (Basilan, Culion, Leyte, Luzon, Mindanao, Palawan, Polillo).
Murphy (1977) reported on an unusual method used by B. cynodon to immobilize avian prey involving both the jaws and tail (the diet of B. cynodon reportedly consists mainly of birds and eggs).
Boiga cynodon was long assumed to be oviparous (Leviton 1968). This was confirmed by the report of captive reproduction by Quinn and Neitman (1978).
Leong and Shunari (2010) reported an attempt by a Black Spitting Cobra (Naja sumatrana) to kill and swallow a Dog-toothed Cat Snake (B. cynodon). This predation event was inadvertently interrupted by human observers, causing the cobra to regurgitate its dead and partially swallowed prey. The total length of the B. cynodon specimen was 233 cm, including the 50 cm tail (Leong et al. [2010] report that these largely arboreal and nocturnal snakes reach a maximum length of 270 cm).
Bojga psí (Boiga cynodon) je had z čeledi užovkovitých, žijící v oblasti Jihovýchodní Asie. V češtině je tento druh občas nazýván i bojga hnědá[2], toto jméno se však většinou používá pro mnohem známější druh Boiga irregularis, proslavený invazí na Guamu.
Bojga psí dorůstá délky i přes 2 metry. Žije především na stromech, včetně lidmi vysazovaných plantážních druhů. Živí se ptáky, ptačími vejci a malými plazy.

Boiga cynodon, commonly known as the dog-toothed cat snake, is a nocturnal species of rear-fanged colubrid snake endemic to Asia.
It is a large snake, reaching more than 2 m (6+1⁄2 ft) in total length. The front teeth of the upper jaw and the lower jaw are strongly enlarged.[3]
The body is slender and laterally compressed. Dorsally it is tannish with reddish-brown or dark brown crossbands. There is a dark streak behind the eye on each side of the head. The venter is whitish, heavily marbled with dark brown.
The smooth dorsal scales are arranged in 23 or 33 rows at midbody, and those in the vertebral row are strongly enlarged. Ventrals 248–290; subcaudals 114–165.[4]
It feeds mainly upon small birds and bird eggs, but may also take lizards and small Bats.[4]
Boiga cynodon is an oviparous species, with sexually mature females laying eggs, 6-12 per clutch.[4]

Habitat utama ular ini adalah pinggiran hutan dan sering hidup di sekitar manusia. Ular ini biasanya beraktivitas di pepohonan atau semak-semak, walaupun juga sering berkelana di tanah, biasanya tidak jauh dari sumber air seperti sungai atau rawa. Mangsa utamanya adalah kadal, mamalia kecil seperti tikus, dan burung. Ular ini bahkan juga memakan telur burung.
