| I almost lost my new guy. I was taking zip out to potty and he is only 2 pds and he loves to run fast. He was just going pee when I see this really big bird comming real low and I thought he is really low.Then I see he heading towards my little guy man I took a few big steps and off the bird ran. It I found out was a hawk. It makes me sick to think that if I wasnt close to him what would have happened. I do not live in the country so I did not think this would have ever happened but it did.I am so glad to have theses guys. I love them all so much. |

| I am so glad he is okay. I make sure Georgie never goes out without his big sister Coco (75lb Boxer). My brother told me that could happen so I am extra precautious. Thank goodness you where there

| We have a hawk around our neighthood. When I let Parker outside of Friday there was 1 Hawk and 3 crows flying around. When the hawk spotted him he flew over to my neighboods tree. I was so scared. I ran over and picked Parker up. I knew what that Hawk was thinking. That is so scary. I know last year at our Easter Egg hunt that we have at my house, A hawk and crow kept flying down and finding the real hard boiled eggs. It was kinda funny then... but not flying down after Parker. |

| My husband works in the county parks department and he said that the hawks will also attack humans. They have one that has done it twice. When Tucker was little, I always worried about it. Now, at 11 pounds I don't know if the Hawk could lift him! Kenny still says to be careful, he just doesn't trust them.
