I was in San Diego and called Anne to see how Alex as doing (he had a temperature). Anyways she frantically tells me how she lets Hannah into the backyard. Hannah sees a bunny and makes a b-line for it. apparently bunnies are not the smartest animals in the world. Instead of hopping over to the hole under the fence where it breached the security if my yard, it decided to head in the opposite direction. Poor Choice. She corners the Bunny in the rose bushes and emerges from the roses with the bunny in her jaws.
If I am home I am praising her. The bunnies come into my yard eat the grass and foliage while leaving their little turds all over the place. They are nothing more than fancy looking rats. Anyways, Anne comes into the yard and sees Hannah with the bunny in her mouth and shaking it vigorously. Carnivores do this to break the preys neck and render them defenseless. The bunny looks at Anne and shrieks. A sound she will never forget. Anne yells for Hannah to drop the bunny which she does. The bunny does not move until I return home and resuscitate it.
Yeah right, she broke the neck. It was dead. I disposed of the carcass over the fence. I expect the coyotes to be particularly active tonight. I know it is sick but I am really proud of Hannah. She is protecting the integrity of the yard, while feeding her natural tendencies. Good Girl.
I am proud of my puppy!

You're lucky......Cozwell has a skunk as one of his kills. A stink so bad it hurt.
