Spanky is only 3 1/2 lbs and as big as that hawk was i bet he could have picked up my baby I am so freaked out over this. anyway just wanted to share I think i will have hubby build me a roof for the front patio. |
WOW were you lucky !!! That's really scary and a close call for your yorkie...what a good thing you were right there !
Hawks WILL pick up a small dog and carry them off - even if they don't actually 'fly' away with them - the talons alone can kill a small animal....you were very very lucky...
