    Outlaw that was so funny about your dog and Jays. I have taught my hundred pound dobe to just sit and watch....no bark, no chase. It's killing him.

    He obeys until the squirrels start fighting with each other, ....he can't contain himself when that happens. They run so fast, his instincts over power him. I can call him off, but let him go because I know he can't catch them.

    I have had Jays attack me, when I was trying to save their off spring from drowning in my swimming pool!

    In addition to a great variety of backyard birds that use my feeders, I can walk down to the river and see all kinds of large waterfowl including the ever present Canadian Geese. We have our share of prey birds and frequently see Bald Eagles and the beautiful Osprey (see pic).

    P.S. Our three local salmon hatcheries are all covered with net enclosures. The Osprey would decimate them otherwise.

    JD I'm laughing.....I use to have a large English bulldog, a Persian cat, and a parrot.....

    The parrot would torture the cat when he was asleep, he use to call him over to the cage when he couldn't get at him. (here kitty kitty).

    The bulldog was beat up by the Persian. ....Slapped silly all the time. Many years later.....different pets.

    My Doberman at this point comes and lets me know the cat needs in.....she gets in and then slaps the Doberman silly. Oh the sadness of wounded feelings of a Doberman,....every single day.
