Ok. You can hit the report button and ask a mod to lock the thread, if you want.Yeah, I asked for help, but I am now saying I am giving up.
Sorry for your loss.
Always sad if a pet is attacked or killed.
Was the rabbit in the run at the time of the attack?
What I see is a run where many predators can jump over. And smaller predator can go trough.
Seeing the bite wound and the left overs from chewing I do think it was a dog who likes meat but was not very hungry.
It doesn't look like it was a marter, a fox or a bird of prey to me.
I can be wrong about the dog, because where I live we have not so many 4 legged predators as in the US,
For rabbits you really need a solid cage as run. I had rabbits long ago and lost 2 to a fox. Neighbours lost many rabbits too. Sometimes it was a marter, sometimes a fox. And once it was a dog that escaped. Normally people keep their dog here in the house or on a leash.Yes, she was in the run.
I guess I learned a hard lesson about having a secure run.
From the picture the run is plenty wide for a dog to get in and the fence isn't that high. My alpacas can turn around in a space narrower than that and they are way bigger than a dog. And the fence, if it wasn't like that before, could have easily been bent over by a dog going in. At our prior house the neighbor had a black lab that would bend my 3' welded wire fence when it went over (which was often).No offense, but my run is not that wide. I don’t think a dog could’ve done that.
