Jackson just killed a huge rabbit right in front me. I know, I know, I'm a wimp and that's what he was bred to do. It was just so weird to see him in such a mode - he's hunted bunnies for years in my dads yard and is definitely pretty intense about it but they always escape out of the fence before he catches them.
Well we had just got home and the bunny was taken by surprise and was just sitting eating grass in between the deck and an ex-pen we have blocking the dogs from under the deck (well, so we thought. Jackson obviously found another route in there). Lilly my dads dog (12lb jrt/shihtzu mix) helped corner it and then Jackson GRABBED it so fast and shook it's neck like a ragdoll in less than 5 seconds. The rabbit's legs were shaking for a bit and then it died (so I hope).
But omg I was so traumatized by what I saw lol. I don't like to see any innocent animal killed for no reason. Poor thing.
Anyway now he keeps barking at the door and being obnoxious trying to go out there. My dads gonna shovel it up and bury it tomorrow.
I know I should be proud, and he was so pleased with himself, lol, but I can't help but feel for the poor bun bun. haha
