Lucianam:

Just stepping in to agree that whoever lets a dog burn to death is a 
creep, but wasn't Snape fleeing from an angry hippogriff? Perhaps if 
he had turned back to save the dog, Buckbeak (Witherwings) would have 
killed him. Snape was running, he barely had time to reach the 
Hogwarts gates and Deapparate.

And maybe he never noticed the yelping dog. After all, didn't JKR 
write he was just in much pain? Pain tends to make people overlook 
what's happening around them.

Hoping Snape is not a total creep, even if he's a loyal Death Eater,
