Re: HYB:Drawbacks- are funny!

Lol, I'm getting such a tickle from this thread!  As if the idea that Betty packing around a hammer to protect herself wasn't enough, the first suggestion is that she become tall and imposing.  I've never met Betty but she doesn't strike me as the loud and imposing type, but a puli is a rather largish dog so maybe I'm off base.
   
  Then there's a silly neighbor who gets rid of the dog that's now been sick enough to know to never eat the irises agian after she's paid the vet bill.  And the image of anybody pouring a CUP of salt down any dogs throat!  ROFLMself silly.
   
  you just never know what you'll hear in here.

  Did you ever have a good laugh at yourself? I just went to check one of my 
iris beds to see how an iris was doing. Common practice, but this time I 
took a hammer with me. How much good I thought a hammer would be against a 
mountain lion is beyond me. I mean how close would he have to be for me to get 
him with a claw hammer?? 



Neighbor found the bodies of 2 deer, a calf, and a dog, all close together. 
(between me and the creek) We've been told that the only animal that brings 
it's food home AND that would kill a dog is the mountain lion. We had 
reports of this guy in May when I came home from the convention. After carrying a 
weapon into the garden for a couple of months, I kinda forgot about it. 

Anyone on the list familiar with BIG CAT habits?? Write me off list. 

Oh! Do Mountain Lions eat irises?
