If Mikey is anything like my aunts' dog Laddie, he won't learn... he'll be out there first chance to get the sucker back.... Luckily Laddie only came back with a grass snake from the back pasture, and coyotes are unusual, if not rare in deepest darkest Dorset.... but it took a couple of mouthfuls from grass snakes to teach him not to go play with the nests.The cows had a better way of dealing with them, they just pooped on them..... cows on an all grass diet ..... don't know whether it drowned them or suffocated them!
