My Hambone (bluetick coon hound) and Diggedy (morbidly obese beagle) have jumping contests when they see pigeons on top of the barn. They bark so hard and put so much effort into leaping that I swear one of these days they'll actually take flight -the dogs, that is- and nail those irritating winged rodents. And we shoo coyotes and foxes away from our chickens using salt shot in a regular shot gun. It gives 'em a nice stinger without being lethal. We stopped having them snoop around the coop within a couple days of employing the salt shot. I highly recommend it! I love watching dogs go fer the big game.

Now I know what kind of limes, and want to plant one. I'm for the bb gun solution. You'd be shooting up in the air, so wouldn't hurt any neighbors.

I had mice eating my Mexican cornbread mix in my apartment in college and I got 'em with peanut butter on the traps. I bet possums would go for it too. (Not that I'm advocating cruelty to animals - not one bit. But nobody messes with my Mexican cornbread. Or your limes.) Have you tried luring the possums with peanut butter?

Good luck & hope the dogs get them!

But I love seeing Dante jumping so high! What a pupper. Good ole Sierra would *never* hurt a possum ;) Good guard dogs you have there!!

I'm too lousy at growing anything to have this problem, but if I did have anything growing, I'd be furious...although it sure would be a great thing to keep the dogs occupied That must be incredibly irritating, but lol, good on the dogs for defending the homefront!
