Its almost 10pm. I let the dogs out and my youngest GSD is running the perimeter along the fence with his nose in the air. Almost frantic like. I hear movement but can't see. I can only assume it's a raccoon. I grabbed a flashlight and walked the area of the enclosure. All is quiet there. I, of course won't be able to sleep and I am allowing the dogs access to the yard for the next couple hours.
If raccoons know dogs are present--would that deter them on a normal basis? I've been here for 5 years and the only thing that I've ever caught in the yard was a bunny, one time. I put rocks under the gates to deter that because a rabbits nest in the midfle of the yard with 7 dogs is no picnic...been there, done that.
