She loves going out and I would not deprive her of the fun she has outside but it is a bother having to watch for those who might think she is a snack. |
I have predatory critters, too. The Yorkies are never out unsupervised. I normally always take Roxy my littlest one (4.5 pounds) out with Buddy (Golden retriever) she stays right next to him &me and she used to go out with Lucky too she always stayed very close by. Buddy pees around the property boundary as did Lucky daily. I also put their poop at the border of the yard to the woods.
Cozy (16 pounds) and Lucy (8.5 pounds) would give most predators hernias if they went after them.
