 Still though, I watched an Eagle circle lower and lower while he watched a tiny dog in a parking lot one day. A few of us were out for a ride and we were watching it while we were parked there. It was really looking like it was going to take a swipe at it so we told the owner and they put the dog in their car. Then the Eagle moved on.

The most fitting word I could come up with.I can see the eagle being curious, but I really don't think losing a pet is a valid concern. Unless I'm way off base, eagles and predatory birds can only carry a few pounds. So unless it was the runt of a litter of Teacup Poodles, the dog should remain on the ground. Quote:
