Yeah, I had a little tortie who was terror on mice, chipmunks and squirrels, but she wouldn't take on a raccoon. Our Belgian Terv would...I so her go down a chuck hole after a ground hog. I heard a scream and her nose came out bloody--but it wasn't her screaming. He just got her fire going and she was just getting warmed up...had to drag her out of there. Only two things in the world scared her: Thunder and German Shepherds. Not Akitas, or Dobermans or even Irish Wolfhounds, just German Shepherds (A big male nearly killed her once for no good reason, a 150lb monster. It's very rare for male dogs to attack females).

The tortie and the Terv ended up best friends, sleeping together, going on walks together.
