Go Daisy go!

Sometimes she can be annoying... With her chewing stuff up,  Sneaking bathroom breaks INSIDE the house,  and trying to get food off the counters.

But then nights like the story I'm about to share,   makes it all worth it. 

Daisy does sleep all night.   Its wonderful!  She will only wake us occasionally to go pee outside but always comes right back in and falls alseep.    We cannot complain a bit!   She either sleeps at the foot of our beds or on the floor.

On the RARE occasion she will wake us barking,  But we have learned that every time she does this,  there is either someone (a neighbor) outside talking or something in general off outside.  she makes us aware and we've learned that when Daisy barks ,  we need/should go take a look.   

So when she started barking randomly in the middle of the night one night around 11,  Matt jumped out of bed and immediately ran to check things out.   Daisy was barking towards the back yard so Matt opens the window to take a close listen.    
Sure enough,  He says the chickens were making noise!    ( If you know anything about chickens they DO not make noise at night).  He immediately knew something wasn't right and ran outside to investigate!  
 
Sure enough,  Upon getting to the chicken coop ,   Matt found a possum in the coop with our chickens and ducks!!      He sprang into action and was able to get it before it harmed our girls.    

Daisy did her job!   She let us know,   that something was out there,  and something wasn't right!  We were so happy with her and thankful for her good ears and alert character!  

 *And before Im attacked by anyone,  We have been in contact with our local law enforcement,  If at ANY time,  any wild animal is after our personal animals,   It is our duty to protect them and we are well within our rights to do so.
