| Weak stomache don't read! OK my Mothers yorkie mix, Bedford, is 4 yrs old. My mother feeds him everything she eats during the day and a McDonalds cheesburger for dinner. Hes only had 1 bone in hes life and it made him aggressive so Mom wont give him more. Last night Bedford started barking like crazy, she goes out to see and there he goes chasing a rabbit. Mom gets Dad and when he gets out there Bedford is quiet. They finally find him.....EATING the Rabbit! He's ripped the Rabbit open and has eaten most of hes insides leaving head,feet and tail. Mom is totally grossed out and upset her baby was so mean to another anmial. I'm mad they didn't let him have his fill and tell me how much he left as not edible. Of course we will watch to see hes OK but I doubt he'll have any problems, he just had the best meal of his life! |

| Hmmmm... dont really know how to respond to that one. I mean, if your mom's raising him to be a hunter or killer dog - then Im sure that was probably "the best meal of his life" Whatever works for ya'll I guess...........................

| Well, I would be glad that he is eating a rabbit and not the other way around. Terrier is still a terrier. |

| I'd be watching him just incase the rabbit had any diseases. It is a natural instinct even if we think it's disgusting. Piper chased my neighbors rabbit once, and he never leaves my side when we're outside. I started yelling at him, or we might have had dead rabbit too. Yucky.

| Well, with all the crap she's been feeding him, I'm sure he was yearning for something proper in his diet. Our dogs were bred to hunt small game, and raw meat, bones and organs are what is best for our little carnivores. Sad for the rabbit, but that's life... I wouldn't purposely feed mine another live animal (although Lacy goes crazy when she sees a rabbit...), but she's fed a raw diet to make up for that

| Wow! I hope the furbaby does not get any negative outcome from eating the rabbit. It would be good to just observe the furbaby for a couple of days. |

| Other than to say....your mother should not be feeding human food to her dog. That is HORRIBLE for him and so very wrong to do that. She is killing her dog by doing that. Also, like MyFairLacy said, he probably wanted something good in his diet and Yorkies are terriers...that's what they do. I would honestly be more concerned about feeding human food all the time than the rabbit. My dog eats raw rabbit daily (and although that's different...it's still rabbit), but you can bet he sure doesn't eat a CHEESEBURGER! Sorry to go off, but that is just horrible IMO.
