Brekke and Mocha here: we found a big mousen in da back yard last night.  We both smelled something weird, and tag teamed an 8 inch mouse just before midnight! 
Brekke here: I was giving it the what for and Mocha was helping but silently.  I was gonna catch the evil thing and kill it, but Mocha went the wrong way and that evil mousen slipped out under the gate.
Mocha here:  I am not used to helping with a mousen - I got a big sister who's a sheltie and she takes care of stuff like that!  I will do better,  and next time I will help more - if there is a next time!

Julia here - it was 8" long minimum!  Brekke was barking a little yip, yip, yip, so I knew something weird was happening!  I turned on the porch light and this thing was huge!   In 23 years here, I had never seen a mouse (aren't field mice supposed to be little???) and was shocked at its size!  I hope the red-tailed hawks take care of this thing, now that Brekke and Mocha have alerted them!

Umm, I think that mouse is spelled R-A-T.
There's nothing like having a dachshund tongue up your nose at 3 a.m.

It was a mouse body and a mouse head - not a skinless rat tail at all.  Definitely a brown soft, furry thing that squeaked when cornered!  I am going by the rats I saw on "Willard" and it looked nothing like them.  Here are the girls, checking out the back perimeter earlier yesterday...Mocha is on the left and Brekke on the right.

Brekke here:  My daddy sez it was a mouse, too!  We don't live in the part of town where there are tree rats, but Momma is going to do a search on what we saw.  It was like this only a solid brown.

 :2funny:  Well, let me just say this - I went to a web site after doing a search on rats and mice.  I only know that if it is in fact, a mouse, I hope no one ever has a mouse in the house stirring by your stockings, the size of that one!  It was Godzilla-mouse!
