A dog and dove fight.

I was writing peacefully and looking how Horatio Caine kept the order in Miami when there was a loud noise at Luna´s terrace (I cannot call it "my terrace" any longer). I yelled and the noise went down. So, it wasn´t the wind. But then, after a few minutes, the noise started again. I got up. Luna ran out of the terrace with a dove in her jaws ((I will not say mouth in this case). I yelled, she ran, I picked up a stick, she let go. The dove flew a bit, still alive with such bad luck that she flew into my room. I went to get something with which to cover it and a carton to get it to stay there. I found it and took it to the garage out of Luna´s reach. The dove is able to fly but I don´t know how much did Luna hurt it. I know that it is Luna´s nature and also that the dumb dove could not know that she was getting into Luna´s quarters. I hope it survives. Some months ago, a smaller bird got into the terrace and Luna had eaten it before I could do anything.

I took the good bite away. She was left with her bad pellets.

I guess Luna is only following her instincts. Hopefully the dove will recover.

Oh no I hope the dove gets well very soon. Ours loves to chase birds too and kills them if he has the chance same with mice and frogs.

@lovinangelsinstead21 I think that I saved this dove. Today it was not at the garage.

@marguicha Oh I know that already I have rescued many a bird from being eaten or hurt even.

This reminds me of the skirmishes of our pet pigeon and our dogs. It was lots of fun to see the pigeon chasing the dogs. I had it on a video.

Luna will not be chased by a dove.

@CarolDM It the neighbor´s cat does not get it. But I have discovered that the cat is not coming near my house since Luna lives here.

I know. I can´t be telling the birds to stay out. They don´t understand Spanish.

She couldn´t help it! The dove should have known better. She had all the garden to fly free.
