So Proud

A couple of weeks ago the dogs would not stop barking at the red grain shed.  Emry and her cousins finally went to see just what they were barking at!!  As they peered into the opening they saw three sets of eyes peering back at them, a little family of racoons had taken up residence there!

By mid afternoon the dogs finally got one of the racoons out and injured its back end.  They continued to torment the cute little thing until finally Jared came and put it out of its misery.  It was quite sad that Jared had to shoot it but it was even sadder seeing it being tormented by two dogs twice its size.  I really find racoons to be quite cute with their big bushy stripped tale and their black mask.  Their paws are really rather remarkable too, they look like hands with long fingers.  I guess that is why they can make such a mess.

Gibson and Fender were so proud of themselves for catching the racoon, they both sat over it panting and smiling at what they did!!!  It was the cutest thing ever!
