Major, we've thought about borrowing a cat but I'm afraid the raccoons would get it.

Mary

It's just as well, I don't think cats are into being borrowed. They have a strong sense of home and would probably just leave and try to get back where they lived.

The things I learn on TEG. It seemed easy, haha.

If you have a raccoon problem, little yellow fly bait and cola will stop that.

Today's Yorkies are so sissy fied, not sure they could win a stare down with a mouse. Now a JR, may make the mistake of trying a raccoon but they can make quick work of a rat.

Hard to believe that raccoons or rats are a problem as I'd think people would ban together and expedite them out.

 

[Nyboy]

Yorkies are killed by other dogs more then any other breed. A 8 pound yorkie will attack a 80 pound Shepard, they do not know size. I am not a fan of breed very stubborn and almost impossible to house train.

 

[seedcorn]

Find that hard to believe about Yorkies. Kids just got a Yorker/chiwawa mix (my spelling is terrible) loves our dogs & people. Guys I work with have pure yorkies, big lovers. You see more strains than I do.

 

[Nyboy]

Like I said not a fan of the breed.

Didn't I once suggest to you how you could use TEG PM as a garden journal, Major'?

I have to admit, I've never done it.

That being said ... what do you think of the Maltese Terrier, @Nyboy @seedcorn , everyone?

[Nyboy]

Maltese are very protective of their owners, I never try taking one if owner holding. I make owner put dog on floor so I can pick up. They are very high needs grooming wise, their own will pay $$$ to keep dog looking good.
