personally, I think the evidence is scant at best. One could 
conclude that, but one certainly could not prove it. Voldemort 
already has Slytherin connections through his existing Horcruxes, so 
why make another one using Nagini? Perhaps, when Voldemort returned 
he was desperate to complete his set of 6 extrenal Horcruxes and to 
have a complete set of 7, that he used whatever was at hand. This 
one suggested Horcrux seems to be the weakest of them all (logically 
weakest), so, I am left to wonder whether or not Dumbledore was 
mistaken on this issue.

Dubmledore is also led to reason that Nagani is a horcrux because of 
the unusual amount of control Voldemort has over him, even for a 
pareslmouth.
