Mouse catching

Daisy has been busy catching mice. She is up to 19 that I know of.  The other day she caught one near the garage after a day stalking it.  I found a couple of dead mice on top of the hay bales in the barn. Daisy is venturing further into the hay field in search of mice.  Tammy enjoys watching Daisy's slow motion moves as she is stalking mice.

And here is an instance where Tammy and I watched while Daisy "played" with a mouse she had caught by the patio.

The mouse was getting tired of playing so Daisy let it rest and catch its breath.  The mouse eventually would learn to just sit there so at first Daisy pretended to look away and the mouse would make a break for it.  Later Daisy would walk away until the mouse tried to make a break for it.

"No, Mr. Mousey... you're not allow to cross the garden hose."

Later... making a run for my boots.

Nope.  Hiding near the boots is not allowed.


At the end Daisy hugged and cuddled with the mouse.

Here is a 1:59 video of Daisy and the mouse.

Oh.  And I found a bird Daisy caught a day or two after 'playing' with the mouse in the previous photos and video.  Notice how the bird feeder is now crooked.
