Great pics and love the captions!!!! They look like a nice couple. Hope they behave themselves and aren't too rowdy.

I have a previous post about stepping into a 3-foot groundhog/woodchuck hole in my yard from burrows dug by a groundhog/woodchuck. Nearly broke my knee. The pesky critters are eating -yeah, eating-the trimboard around my garage!!! We have tried Hav-a-Heart traps without success. Alpha Omega Pest Control has been trying for WEEKS to capture and relocate the beasts... AARRGGHH!!!! Believe me, woodchucks are not cute or nice. Who wants to lend me a rat terrier for a day or two?

I'll send Steeler over. He hates rodents! We were moving a wood pile a while back and a big old mouse ran out- he grabbed it, flipped in the air and crunch.

And you know, he's such a big dog, but such a lover! The problem VB, is that we haven't physically seen the darn woodchuck for a while, only the evidence of his destruction to the garage... We'd have to just ask Steeler to sit in the yard for a while... maybe he could sniff him out? I know he won't fit into the burrow!
