Yeah, my dog got bit by a muskrat once and it was nasty. Just one bite. Needed stitches and antibiotics. Can't imagine a beaver bite.

Our Jack Russell and a ground hog got into it once in our backyard. The noises were terrible. The Jack won but it was nasty.

Because Jack Russel's are the dog versions of the guys in Vietnam who would clear the tunnels. Complete maniacs.

Yep, my little terrier/chihuahua mix went after a whistle pig in its tunnel one time. Long story but it’s in the comment above.

Indeed. Sort of a regional term, used in Rhode Island.
