My dog has just found there are frogs in garden tonight and is desparate to go outside.

He came in the house last year with a frog dangling out of his mouth (was released unharmed thankfully) but it has made me wonder what is the worst thing or animal others dogs have brought home?
 
Our cat used to pinch the dead rabbits that a young lad caught whilst out with his lurchers...he used to line them u on his step and Sparkey would nick em and bring them back dragging them along the floor as they where as big as he was

He also carried a live baby rabbit from the same lads garden...belonging to his little sister...we heard the baby rabbit squealing for dear life...and we managed to ambush the cat and save the bunny

Mams 2 G.s.ds also killed 2 ferrets belonging to the same lad...they got out and came into our garden..the dogs attempted to bring them into the house

The lad in question is now my OH

She found an already dead kingfisher once, which I thought was a twig in her mouth, until I removed it

She has also dragged along a rat found on the street (rabid, disgusting NY things
crazy.gif
) and will always make a beeline for the geese poop at the park, inevitably getting much of it on her head and in her ears.

The most exciting creatures in the world are CT chipmunks. She squeals and cries while chasing them, but they're much too fast to catch.
 
Our cat bought it a semi decapitated slow worm once. Think it was still wriggling at one point

brother put it out of its' misery.

God knows how she'd managed to catch it though!

Frogs, birds & rats have also made appearances. Worst thing is she' come in the kitchen & drop them at your feet as if to say "Look mum, aren't I a clever girl?!"

Just as the delivery men were struggling unloading a washing machine my farm dog came trotting around the corner of the house and proudly presented them with the rotting head of a deer!

The poachers must have butchered a deer in our forest somewhere because over the course of the day he bought home three legs and the entire skin too. Nice!

My JRT has brought me the bloathed body of a dead moor hen which was floating on the pond up the yard and insisted he gave it to my hand (nice) and a couple of rats (the trouble is he is a better retriever than he is a ratter, having been brought up with labs, so tend to bring them to me LIVE)!!!!!!!
 
My cat has been caught with a budgie feather in mouth, still dont know how he got it out of the cage? He has also had a frog which screemed, terrible noise.

After reading the posts above I'm lucky I have only had frogs so far (oh and the odd mouse)

Mine tend to catch being lurchers but don't retrieve thank god so I haven't had anything brought back to me yet.

Was round a friend's house on New Years Eve and her OH pointer brought in a live rat to show us all. All the girls (except me) ran out the room. Friends bro took it back out side and put it out of its misery.
 
I've never admitted this in public before but my old lurcher once came back to me after running into a local estates grounds with a mouthful of blue feathers. When I went to investigate I found a half plucked male peacock lying on it's back with it's legs waggling in the air, so I sneaked up, sniper style so the owners couldn't see me, and flipped it over and watched it stagger home. A proud moment

I had a cat many years ago that brought home many a varied kill - rats, rabbits, voles, squirrels etc. His favourite 'slaughterhouse' was our bath tub

My dad was always first up out of bed in the mornings, and it fell to him to clear the bathroom first before the rest of the house arose - poor man!!

We lived in a bungalow, and during the summer months we kept the window open a little to keep the air flowing, hence the use of the bath by the cat. Some years later, my daughter's first cat was seen one afternoon leaping the dividing fence between ours and next door with a fully grown cock pheasant in his mouth!!

We had a friend's Weimeraner to stay once and he went off 'hunting' - brought back a dead muntjac, which my OH had to wrestle out of his mouth!! My rottie once carried back from about 3 miles away the head, spine and hindleg of a dear he had found rotting in the woods on a ride. Yuck. Mine is definately more of a scavenger though, he tends to bring back dead things rather than killing stuff himself!
 
Only thing current dog has had is a nest of baby blue tits which had just left the nest that morning..... by the afternoon they were in the bin, having been mouthed to death by the dog.

Oh and he caught a rat on his second birthday..... caught it but didnt know how to kill it

I had to chuck it against a wall to finish it off
