This is just what I have been going through since I moved into my new house in Iowa. I have to keep a sharp eye on any potential hawks, since several have attempted to come too close to Juney and Trixie.
I always go outside with them and stand really close to them. I also am looking into the trees for hawks. Sometimes, I don't see them, though, and they are really quick at getting their prey.
My girls will bark their heads off. If Puppen had barked then the bird might have been scared away. Time to teach "speak"! :D
