The puppy in the middle is toast!
This reminds me of a story. Here he goes again! LOL
In AZ we had a couple of acres all fenced, I built a small pond and put some fish and cat tails in it.
We had chickens of various breeds and after a bit got a couple of mallard ducks. Sure enough mama duck made a nest under our deck and laid over a dozen eggs, most of them hatched and we had ducklings running all over the place, usually with mama not too far off.
After they were about half grown we started noticing in the morning one would be missing. No feathers or blood or anything indicating a cat or coyote jumping the fence. So what was happening to our ducklings?
I got the bright idea to leave the light on in the barn in hopes of seeing the marauder.
No more missing ducks!
The conclusion, an owl was swooping in and carrying one away, and by leaving a light on the ducks could see him coming and run for it. Never lost another one, the light bill did go up a bit though! LOL
