New puppy hasn't caught one yet, but her predecessor was a serial
Rodent killer. She caught squirrels, rabbits, and a few rats who live in the culvert down the road and run up and down the fence line.
She was a NIMBY dog.
New puppy did corner a bird once. I rescued it from her. She's also cornered an opossum and a raccoon. But she hasn't tried to kill any of them. So, she may be trying to play. And that could get her hurt.
