Sonya, i got this guy guarding it against critters, (that was a bonus) ..and it seems quite effective killing anything in 4 legs. and attacking anything unknown/uninvited in 2 legs as well.

so far rats , and mice seems GONE , after a 2 weeks killing spree he did a few months ago , he even took care of a rat nest haha, good thing he only kills it (does not eat it) and then deposit the corpses near the main door so everyone can see it. he is still a puppy a very smart and rewarding puppy.

Yeah, I'm sure the racoons and possums have been having parties since my dog died a few years ago ... . The time my wangii was destroyed was the only time something like that has happened tho

I'm keeping my eyes open for a replacement - but I'm trying to avoid shipping costs
