Birds of Prey, Racoons and other wild animals are nocturnal. They hunt at night, or right at dusk.When there is a shortage of food they will eat nearly anything. Small animals are easy targets to these large birds with giant talons. I have a field right behind my house. There were trees that had many owls perching up there every evening. They always took off looking for for dinner at the same time of evening, right before dark. These owls were enormous. I did not have Suzi back then. Snakes are also anther predator to please watch out for! Especially if your Yorkie goes on the grass. Snakes are difficult to see. They spread out and are fast.
We have large black bees, and yellow jackets to worry about as well
I am very worried about all these things that can hurt my precious yorkie.
