...by a mouse!
All Boxer owners know the way these dogs use their front paws almost like a cat does.
Well... my girl, the "attack/terminator" Boxer, started sniffing around a tree stump when she started chasing something.
Out came this mouse who latched on to her front toe nail (wish I had a camera as the huntress became the hunted) she then stood there trying to flick it off and it wouldn't let go!
When it finally fell off she stood there with this totally befuddled look.
Where's the Town Creek Police substation!

Yes they do, but my Super Powered predator had the thing gnawing on her claw, didn't break her skin.
Besides she's up to date with her shots.
Good point though!
Thanks.

Would this matter if your dog is up to date on their shots?

"Exposure to rabies can be prevented

Do not approach, handle, or feed wild or stray animals.
Have your dogs, cats, and ferrets vaccinated against rabies and keep the vaccinations up-to-date.
Do not leave pets outside unattended or allow them to roam free.
Cover garbage cans tightly and do not leave pet food outside; this may attract wild and stray animals.
Teach children to stay away from wild animals or animals that they do not know.
Prevent bats from entering your home by using window screens and chimney caps and by closing any openings greater than ¼ inch by ½ inch. Bats found in the home should be safely collected, if possible, and tested for rabies.
Wear gloves when handling an animal if it has been in a fight with another animal. Keep it away from people and other animals and call your veterinarian or local health department to report the animal exposure.
