Don't know if this should go in Dogs, but ....
Last night it was nearly dark when I finished horse, and I could hear my 10 month old Terrier barking furiously a little way away, so I went to investigate. There is a gap in the hedge and I could see her on one side of the hedge barking like mad, and sitting on the other side of the hedge, quite unpeturbed, was a fox. It simply "wasn't bovered" by this annoying little dog. Of course, when it saw me it fled across the field with dog in hot pursuit, but luckily she soon reaslied that she would never catch it and gave up, which was a good thing as it WAS dark by then and I didn't fancy wandering around the fields trying to find her.
As she is on constant fox and rat watch I wondered what she would do when she came face to face with a fox, and now we know. She barks.
