I much rather have Miss Polly than a snake!

LJ, your gang is so cute. They let you know when visitors are around. What good furbabies.

You need to give them extra treats!

Sometimes they are a bit TOO vocal. Way too helpful...hah!

Ours (have not named her like you have yours) walks along our neighbor's fence -- just like Polly in your earlier pictures. I don't know why that gives me the creeps.

I was traumatized by one when we lived in Chicago and I was sitting outside one evening on the front step waiting for a friend. The brazen little beast walked right up and sat down in front of me. I screamed and jumped backwards and fell through the screen door.

Oh please, if one walked up to me, I would probably croak!

Actually, I thought they did carry rabies. Not sure. Anyway, just warning you! They don't just eat bugs, lol.

No, their body temperature is very low so that helps them ward off rabies.

Yeah...well thanks for the warning. I certainly don't want my pups to be snacks

Lindzorz · 06-27-2011, 06:55 AM

Huh, I did not know that! I assumed they could carry rabies like raccoons and such do. Well, you learn something new everyday. I just knew about the chickens and wanted to warn you to watch them closely if you see Polly around, but I'd say with a pack of 7 Yorkies, she wouldn't stand much of a chance. :-P

Hahaha...I think they would chew her up. BUT, I don't want that to happen. My Cookie is a varmint hunter. She is a yorkie/border terrier mix...ALL terrier! She would just love to get Polly.

Screw the cracker...Polly wants a Cookie!

BTW, Polly is cute...if you don't look at the tail.

And only when she is not showing her teeth.

Here is a picture taken late one night:
