[quote=UCGal]I had a suggestion all ready to go until that last line.
We live on a canyon. We had critters of all sorts in our backyard until we got our dog.
It’s really fun to see him bound after errant critters that come into our yard.
Since we have fruit trees – we get rats. (Even yuckier than rabbits). He has totally eliminated that problem.[/quote]
UCGal: +1 on that.
We have four dogs and ZERO problems with rabbits, moles, squirrels, groundhogs, rats, mice and all other manner of small, furry woodland creatures.
Our littlest, Bella, is a pit/Jack Russell mix and a born hunter. At least 3x – 4x a week, we’ll see her scurry past the kitchen window with some small, soon to be dead critter in her jaws.
The dogs also keep the coyotes at bay (we have two cats as well.)
