I know how you feel I have a Bald Eagle and a Golden Eagle hanging around.. I have my dogs penned close to the house and don't let them run unless I'm their to keep an eye out... They will take them... Crows will too, tinny puppy's as will turkey vultures.... Paragon's sp?? as well... It's scary.. I had one of my dogs a few yrs back be picked up and carried over a mile from home... I got her back as she had long coat and must have slipped from it's grasp... I was so panicked as we didn't know what happened to her.. She just disappeared into thin air. I was up all night calling her and looking for her. The guy that found her said she ran across the road right in front of him and he slammed on the brakes got out of his truck and she flew into his arms. He left a phone number by one of our local stores he'd found her just 20 minutes or so after she'd disappeared over a mile away... When I got her back , if she saw a turkey vulture fly over, which we had numbers of them hanging around she would try to climb my leg... Even the following spring she was setting in the sun room and when the vultures came back in the spring, she saw her lst one and came barking and crying for me to pick her up.. I went and looked out the window and sure enough one was circling the house... She'd not for gotten.. I did much praying when she disappeared as we couldn't figure out what happened... She did have talon marks on one of her sides.. I feel it was a baby bald eagle that took her..

Needless to say I feel the same way you do....
