I didn't want to post a link to this man's Facebook page, but a friend of mind reposted his post from April 14. This man lives in Kansas, and they believe it was a hawk or owl that swooped down and grabbed their baby (full size long-haired Dacshund). The poor baby has talon puncture wounds on his back and near his front legs. We are loaded with owls and hawks here in Mississippi (too much open land here), as well as various land critters that are bigger than our boys. We let them use piddle pads, and if they go outside, we watch them (no pun intended) like a hawk. |
