Back in June the farmer cut and baled the hay field behind our house. This has been a really good year for meadow voles which are about the size of a mouse if you're not familiar with them. Anyway, a family of foxes were having the best time catching and eating the voles and we were watching them when I noticed that my then 4 month old yorkie had wandered into the field. I called him and he turned around to look with me and all I saw was the wiggling back end of a vole sticking out of his mouth. He took off and I chased him all over our yard while he swallowed it. I was so mad! I was sure he would throw it up later, but he didn't and he was fine except for the fact that it was really gross!! |
