And if its attacking your pet you are far more likely to hit your pet if you hit anything at all.
I've seen them from my tree stands (deer hunting) numerous times over the years since the 1970's. I also have many images on my trail cameras...
You are correct that try are nimble (they Have to catch squirrels, mostly red, to survive.)
I wouldn't ever hit my pet under any circumstance but it's unlikely I would have the opportunity as she is 75 lbs of pure muscle and adrenaline.
My issue is how you can say I wouldn't be able to do something that I am proficient at, not knowing me in the least...you are off base sir!
