Every morning Great Horned Owls (some that are startlingly big) "talk" to us. If I had a small dog, I'd worry.

But, yeah, I like them too, though I am careful to keep a place for our wild bunnies to hide when they and our neighborhood red-tailed hawk are out seeking dinner.

and enjoy being stuck up our butts with two small breed dogs. Thunder sounds off and you'd swear these little dogs were glued to us. I'll take that baby, We both have comfy thick blankets we stick the dogs under to cuddle and reassure them, I'm sure we can find room for a little fella like that.
