Charlotte looks like a white rabbit when she runs full force. It is an understatement to say that I'm freaked out by the thought that my little white pup will be attacked by a forest predator. We have fox, coyote, the occasional bear and hawks. I think this clip from The Proposal sums up my fear.
Kevin got off easy!
There is also a rumored story that over 50 dog collars were found in an eagles nest. Can an eagle carry off a six pound pup? Maybe my friend Cheryl, who is also an eagle expert, will weigh in on this and ease my fears.
Have you ever lost your dog? How do you keep the little ones safe?
Lol...well, this is an awesome clip - and although there have been many rumors of eagles carrying off even small children...they are myths. It's true that an eagle would have no problem carrying a 6 lb. pup...but they are kinda picky! And super smart. And the bald eagle prefers fish and the golden eagle prefers...rodents. And small rabbits. They do, sometimes, find toys and trinkets that they bring back to the nest - minus the dog - believe it or not to entertain the eaglets - old shoes have often been found in eagle nests - minus the human. So, I would say your puppy has more chance of being stalked by a fox, coyote, or bear than an eagle or hawk :) But somehow, I can't picture Charlotte ever being out of mom's eyesight long enough for any predator to catch her :)
