This is one of my biggest fears as well. One day while Sadie was sitting on the back of our sofa looking outside.A large hawk swooped down to the window landing in the bush outside the window. It was tryng to get at her with its talons while leaning back on the bush. I happen to be standing right there.I tapped on the window thinking it would fly away. Nope, is stayed there tryng to get her through the window. Then it flew away. That was scary. I live in a development with a lot of trees. A bald eagle nest is at the back of our lot. Then last summer around 5 am, I got up to let the 6 dogs out to potty. I was standing right in the middle of the back yard, from the trees and brush a raccoon came running up to the fence trying to get at the dogs. My goodness I had the hardest time trying to pick up all 6 and get them in the house while all 6 were running around barking and trying to get the raccoon. That is so scary.
