The Squirrels are Back!

The squirrels are back in our yard after their winter hibernation, and Mya is in heaven chasing and tormenting them. She absolutely lives to chase the birds, squirrels and rabbits in the yard. How she can be such a dedicated hunting dog in such a little package amazes me. Luckily she doesn't actually catch any of them!

Oh, those sometimes pesky little critters. I'm sure I will start to hear their chattering around here real soon, too. Our little red squirrels chase the great big greys away. What a sight!

Our jack russell terrier was like that! We had newts that would sun on our deck in North Carolina. She would go nuts from inside the house when she spied them.

Fat rascal! Our Schnauzer caught one about a month ago. Yikes. The squirrel was worse for the wear. The dog got one abrasion below her eye.

The squirrels are about the same size as Mya, so if they ever turned on her, instead of running, I think she would be in trouble! For now, it is just good exercise for both of them......LOL.
