:eek::eek::eek::eek: Man why do I always have to be sooo curious... I just had to open this thread huh!

Well, yorkies are terriers. So it's in their blood to hunt vermin. *sigh* poor rabbit...

.....You captured my thoughts perfectly......

Bruce has made a number of kills in his life. He has caught a mouse and two squirrels, but most impressive he got a seagull! It grossed me out everytime, but I could not really scold him or anything since it is instinct.

Whoa... a seagull???? That is very impressive, but poor seagull! Lol... I'm an animal lover, so I hate hearing about these kinds of things, but it is the CIRCLE OF LIFE. We are on the top of the food chain :rolleyes:

My min. schnauzer and boston terrier... both of whom spend most of the summer in the yard can jump 6-7 feet in the ear and catch a bird... the crunch away on it.... and it screams... it is horrible. But... it is normal. And for that matter... while we should feed our dogs well... especially if they have any health problems... come on guys... before dog food.... and even after... most of my life everyone I knew fed their dog the "scrap" pile from the table. Pot. peelings... etc. And the dogs loved it and lived long healthy lives...lol. Dogs are strong... while we have bred these smaller... sometimes unnatural breeds have changed that a little... a cheese burger is not that bad... a healthy yorkie can eat a burger! cottage cheese or american... still cheese... so give this poor ladies' mom a freaking break!

Heck, Oscar chased a deer out of our yard once...if he had caught it I don't know what he would have done with it...LOL. A month or so ago, Rhonda's Bailey was mentioned on a thread as quite the rabbit hunter...and it is good for them. I have heard that rabbits can carry parasites but are safe after the weather has turned cold??? Here is Bailey with his "prize"...she saw him in the yard and snapped the photo thru the window...He was proud of himself! But I think in this case, he took the "prize" away from his brother...Toto the cat!
:eek: That picture is disgusting and I think shows a total lack of respect for God's creatures. :mad: I just don't understand, yet again, how you could let him do that :(

Geez, if ours ever caught and did that to the squirrels they love to chase, I know I'd never look at them the same again.
If I wanted a pet that killed other animals, I would reconsider owning a cat and a boa constrictor.

yorkies were bred to kill animals..in fact ALL carnivores were created to kill and eat other animals

well, we're omnivores - we eat meat and plants...but yeah, I couldn't just go out and kill an animal and eat it myself...I have to buy it already killed LOL I couldn't say raise my own cow and then butcher it myself and then eat it...that would gross me out, but I have no problem buying a steak at the store and eating it :p

Most people and dogs I know, including myself and mine, being well fed and civilized, eat animals but we don't kill them ourselves.

I just wouldn't fair very well on a working farm!

GinosMommy 11-30-2007 07:30 PM

My mom grew up on a farm. She couldn't cook beef or chicken for years after she got married. Animal "appreciaters" can live on farms. Animal "lovers" should not. ;)

Me either! We raise chickens and I have a problem eating the eggs!!! I can't even go out there when a hawk gets one of them...hubby has to tend to it! :eek:

lilbumbleybees 11-30-2007 10:41 PM
LMFAO!!! I am so sorry, but I can't help but DIE laughing at that! They be look like prissy indoor babies, but we must not forget they are TERRIERS! haha They were bred to be ratters! What difference is a bunny? lmao It probably tasted better than anything he's ever had. Dogs need a better diet than human food, especially nasty FatDonalds. Sorry, I hate that place with a passion as I do majority of fast food places

It's been said before, but yorkies are TERRIERS that were bred to hunt and kill rodents. It's ingrained in them to chase after small animals in the yard, and if they catch them, it's also instinctual to kill them. It's not pretty, and it makes me sad too, but as much as we like to think that our yorkies our "babies", they are DOGS, and we need to remember they are animals. Nature will take over when they're outside, and their primal instincts kick in, though you've nurtured, taught, and cared for your dog so much they seem like a little person inside your home.

To the OP-I'm sure the rabbit was a healthier meal for the dog than the fast food is. Fresh, raw, wild rabbit should be just fine for dogs to eat. I'm not sure about disease, so I'd keep an eye on the dog, but realistically, wild dogs eat all kinds of animals, and their stomachs are made to handle bacteria that human stomachs are not (which is why they can eat raw meat without getting sick, as we can't).
