Pp let Rosie out into the garden for her late-night pee. 20 seconds later I hear barking growling and snarling in the garden, but by the time I had got over there, there was silence, and before I could find some shoes, she came hurtling back in again, with a cut on her nose and smelling VERY STRONGLY of some animal musk.
It doesn't smell like fox, so after some thought, I conclude that Rosie has probably encountered a badger in the garden. Thank goodness she got away with only a cut.
Go AWAY badgers! Rabbits in the garden I can tolerate, but I draw the line at carnivores with honking big claws.
lurchers,
dogs,
