Besides, how much fun was it having that puppy with a mouth of teeth use your arm as a chew toy?

Much fun! Like a grandbaby! Play with it and give it back to its momma! LOL!

Before I can get another dog, I have to find out where the poison is coming from. It only happened the past year--twice. I had Schnitzel 2 years here and she never had a problem. Lived to be 17 1/2. I still think the "nut" next door put out squirrel poison and they brought it to my yard. Weinie didn't go into her yard. We have a lot of trees and I think the squirrels got it, ran into my yard and dropped it from a tree. One day I will go ask her if she put it out but right now I'm not ready to be charged with "assault."

You have a good point.

My daughter has all house cats now that two have just disappeared.The neighbors lost a dog to poison and it never got out on his own.

Trust is shaken and it takes a
long time to get back confidence.I had not thought about squirrel poison. An accident would make it not seem so cruel.
