These questions scare me so much that I am close to my furbabies at all time even when they are on-leash. Had one close call when a hawk came down within 8 ft. of Cocoa. The only thing that saved her was that our now-deceased Pommie barked and scared it.
This is terrible and you won't like the answer, but my husband said a hawk could crush their head with their feet, claws, talons, whatever you want to call them.
