They will kill and eat ANYTHING they can, including your best bird dog or your aging Lab let out just before bedtime to empty his bladder and sniff around the dooryard before coming in for the night. This happened to a good friend's 11 year old black lab - one of the best waterfowl dogs in Essex Co. a few years back.

Cougars have done the same things in my neighborhood. Our neighborhood is full of Whitetails and that is the Cougars normal food. But, a dog is certainly a target of opportunity. When I was growing up there was a bounty on them and you never saw one. Now, of course, they are protected and you know the rest. I don't let old Skitso out alone.
