I feel certain that if Dumbledor was ever a head of any house it 
would have been Gryffindor. On the whole, it seems that the house 
heads have been presented by Rowling as being true to the virtues of 
their house. I know there is no logical reason for this, in that it 
seems to be Dumbldor (or whoever the headmaster was at the time) who 
makes appointements to the role of head of house, as he makes other 
staff appointments. It is not the sorting hat. I can't imagine that 
Dumbledor would have been appointed head of Slytherin in diffiance 
of convention. I think Dumbledor's relationship with Snape if 
fatherly and I think that is because he was the one, because he was 
the highest authority, who could help. Nevertheless, it must have 
been terrifying for Snape to have to admit something like that 
because he could have simply been turned over to the dementors. That 
created a sort of reliance that is really the basis for their 
relationship (thought hat's not to say they don't admire or like 
each other).
