The other night I was walking my Siberian Huskey through the neighbors front pasture. As I was nearing the gate, the dog got really excited and I couldn't figure out why. Well, I just kept going and he (the dog) fell in beside me as if nothing had happened. Well, about 3 steps later this racoon jumped out of a hole about 6 inches from my foot right next to the dog. I dropped the leash and jumped over the fence hearing a loud growl and snap behind me. Turned around and there is the dog holding a still twitching racoon by the throat as if to say "See. There's a racoon right here". Stupid dog... [X(]
