We went for a walk earlier and they were all on the lead. I noticed that Rosie was sniffing at something but walked on, Ebony wouldn’t leave it and when I told her to move on she did and then suddenly I saw a few blood spots in the snow. I thought she cut her self so bend down to take a closer look and she had a field mouse in her mouth. When I shouted at her she let go. The mouse was dead but I don’t think it had been dead for long as it looked soft.
My worry is that she could catch something from that mouse, especially because of the blood and I don’t know what it died of. Do field mice have common diseases like rats? What about poison?
I don’t won’t to take Ebony to the vets as she got nothing wrong with her right now. How long before something would happen? This happened about 1.5 hours ago.
I am worried and watching her like a hawk, she just been in the garden wanting to eat grass but she does that sometimes, and she hasn’t been sick.
