We have resident Raccoons and dozens of cats, are those ever going to be a problem? Or any other backyard hazard that I may be neglecting?

what you need is a good dog ,,you can train it any way you want ,it will keep strangers away,it will never steel from you ,never rat on you ,and will kill that Raccoon and keep the cats away ,,,,i Recommend a female pit about 1 1/2 years old ,,,,anyway,PEACE,LOVE,RASTAFARI

I have a 1/2 boxer 1/2 pit. The mix is more calm of a dog around the house. but strangers are scared to death. he is about 1/4 bigger than a boxer and a pit. and has a growl that puts shivers up my back. Dogs are great.

A neighbor put some blood/bone meal on his plants in the backyard and his dog dug them up.

Not the only animal that will dig up that mix in a garden. Thats an international broadcast to all omnivores and carnivores. "hey guys free food over here!!!!!" lol

When I lived near the San Fran Zoo, (excuse me, "the city"), I had a friend that worked in maintenance there.

He told me he'd give me some lion crap to make a "tea" from and to pour a boarder around my property. He said it doesn't take much or very often.

Well, I tried it and the results were mixed. No cats or dogs would cross the line. Neither would deer, rabbits or anything else that has a nose and can be eaten by a lion. That part was really cool.

However, in the evening and most of the night, every dog within 5 miles was howlin like crazy.

Went on like that for a couple of rains. Then the howling ceased and the animals still didn't cross the line.

Used to wonder if it would ATTRACT another lion. In the outskirts of SF, they still see a mountain lion once in awhile.

Might have been dumping my garbage and get eaten.

I think I should have told the guy that bought the place from me...

ps there no lions in chicago ill . so i dont think any dogs or cats in that vicinity would know what lion dung would be and most likely be curious and check it out. my beagles would probably eat it like they do there own sometimes . but stoney that would probably be a great idea in the states with lions . devil weed i would recomend steal traps or an electric fence.sorry stoney wasnt trying to ditch your idea it would probably work well in the western hemispere .

Ewwwww, your dogs eat crap? Bad Breath to the max. Don't be tryin to lick me.....

Ha, the lion thing seems to be a natural instinct to stay away from big cats. Even the wild dogs around my area wouldn't cross the line. Some of em would "sneak" up on it and sniff. If I made a noise, they'd crap theirselfs and run like the devil was after them.

I still wonder if any lions ever came by. Oh shit!

rasta for some reason im not sure of but my beagles and my neighbors beagles do eat shit. donno why but it is very nasty. maybe because there in kennels and are bored . but they are akc registered out of chapion bluetick blood line and are very well taken care of (food,shots,wormed ,ect,ect) maybe american kennel club was lying to me and they are really shit eaters .lol

No lions in my part of town now! Ha! The gators would eat em. I should get some more lion crap.....Naw, I'll pass. Hhahahahahaahaha

No, I don't let dogs lick me. It's probably not a health concern as much as a memory thing. I remember what they were licking last...No thanks.

Aahhh come on now skunk, their just like overgrown housecats. A saucer of warm milk and a scratch on the belly and they turn into warm and fuzzy, huggable li'l creatures. Much like campground bears..:p
