I am still reeling from this episode. Last night I took my 2 yorkies (3rd yorkie (15 lbs)was still with my daughter in her bed) outside about 4 AM. cause they seem to want to go then. Anyway as I went out with them I was trying to spot them with the light when I heard them scramping after something. My female 5 lb. lap-dog, sticks as close to me as a june bug was in kill mode and killed a baby possum. It was over half her size and she was proudly bringing it back to me. We have a fenced in back yard but there are woods around it. My male yorkie (5 1/5lb) watched the whole thing right behind her!
Later when my senses came to me, I thought Oh My Goodness wondered if it would have been a adult possum!! Maybe even an armadilla which we have. She would have gone after that also. I could have been in a fight so quick with a wild animal and my poor babies at risk!!!!
So...new plan.....at night they have to go on a leash in case there are wild animals outside.
Anyway had to share this event with my Yorkietalk buddies.
They are calling my Bella "PK" Possum Killer around the house today.
