OMG! They said two dogs were attacked in that area! Have to comment: I thought the plant behind the guy was his hair! Where's my spectacles???? My thoughts are that as Spring comes on, birds of prey may have had a lean winter where food may have been scarce, so now, anything that moves they'll go for... these kinds of attacks seem to be more frequent each spring.... |
oh, this is so awful. i always look outside, up in the sky and all around before i go out with the girls. i do see quite a few hawks around from time to time. very scary |
this happens a lot in BC where my husband is from. Hawks, Eagles, Cougars are the worst! had a guy who bred teacup poodles and he left them out to go potty for 30 minutes and he went back out and they were all... well eaten :/ my li'l pooter is just 5lbs of pom! so scarrry. |
We have a small lake behind us and the hawks sit on my fence to watch the fish. I've seen them swoop down on my girls :mad: (Jazi only weighs 3 1/2 lbs). I NEVER leave them alone outside.:animal-pa |
We take Lulu for walks on the trails in the regional park and there is alot of wildlife. signs saying beware rattlesnakes and mountain lions are in the area... we never let her wander off or too far from us. We see hawks and we pick her up.. she is only 2.5 lbs.... a tasty snack. |
You need to look into getting the Taurus Judge loaded with 45 LC and #4 shot. The #4 will take care of snakes, the 45 LC will take care of anything else up to 1000 pounds. |

Poor little dog.:( That is horrible. I saw a hawk flying over my house two times just last week. I am not sure if it is two different hawks or the same one. My sister in law just told me that her friends yorkie was attacked by a hawk a few weeks ago. I am constantly on the lookout for hawks every time I let Louis out. Is there something you can put out in your yard to scare them off? |
That poor little puppy!!! |

That is what my Aunt did. They have eagles on their ridge and she is so scared her pom will get taken off. She didn't do the whole yard, just the little play area out back where the pom stays when she is outside. |
That is only about 40mins from my house. :( I never let my boys out alone, and my bunny roams free most of the time, but she is about 13lbs, so I think she is ok.... but that is super scary! My Dexter is only 6lbs but my Fletcher is about 13lbs. |
Oh, that is horrible. It's amazing that she lived, those were some nasty looking wounds. We have big ones flying over and my DH says they are buzzards...but I just don't know for sure and it worries me to death. I keep thinking, what if he's wrong. (woo-hoo...big surprise there, ;)) Seriously, I can't tell one from the other. One of use is always in the fenced in yard with Zhoie, but she runs it and isn't on a leash. |
We're a hunting family as well, the remington .270 does the trick on anything from hawks to bears to moose. Wolves are actually really bad up where we live, I'm SO glad we live in town as they tend to stay away from populated areas. I once had a teach in highschool tell all of my class "It's not illegal unless you get caught" lol! |
