Although DH
loves 
our kids, and would be equally devastated if something happened, he does think I get a little too overprotective sometimes. I think a lot of it is just in our maternal makeup. I can usually spot something starting days before it's showing enough for DH to see. I know we have a lot of Yorkie Daddy's on YT and I'm sure they are tuned into their kids just as much, there are always exceptions to the rule. But
generally, I think women just are more in tune to these things, it's just the way we are made.
1/3 acre backyard!!! Oh I'd have a heart attack letting mine out in something that large. (see...overprotective
) I really want to be able to see and watch them at all times when they are out. We have hawks and owls a plenty around here and Gracie Ruth or Yogi would barely be a snack for them. I rely a lot on Boo's 10 lbs size to be a deterrent, but feel it's really my responsibility to keep them safe. Even DH will keep an eye skyward when out in the yard with the kids.
