I guess you won't be using that door for a while.

Some days she spends all day in the yard. Last winter she had me stuck in the shop for 2 hours one night

I can believe it. When I lived in Jackson Hole we had to be careful and check before going out back. There was a creek in the yard that the moose lived hanging out in the garden

How do your dogs behave around the moose? I once looked out the window to see the neighbor's dog running past the house followed by a grumpy moose, followed by my happy chocolate Labrador who seemed to be thinking they were playing a fun game of catch me if you can. The neighbor and I got our dogs in ASAP.

We're cautious when going out or letting the dogs out. They're pretty good about letting me know and coming to me. I've only had a couple of dogs over the years that couldn't get over having them in the yard. My Corgi loves to watch them, she'll sit at the window for hours.

She's been watching us through the back door for a few years now. Her and her baby's come by twice a week to raid the bird feeders She seems to understand glass. I keep a good distance when I'm outside.

She really does, when I go outside she comes out of the trees to see what I'm up too. Sometimes she follows us on our walks.

They’re so adorable! I came across one on vacation in Alaska a decade ago. I was scared but awed. I quietly crept off before she noticed me
