R.A.W 1,987 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 I was recently talking to a farmer on one of my permissions and he began to tell me about two strange animals he had found. he said that he was feeding the cows one morning and a raccoon came up and sat next to him. needless to say he jumped a mile . the rspca came out and caught that one and another. they told the farmer that they were raccoon dogs. i'm not too sure what my dogs would of made of it . has any one experienced anything similar?

lapin2008 1,587 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Not personally but there are crazes of people getting them as pets then being dumped. Someone on here put a picture of a racoon that had been snared somewhere in the UK Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fireman 11,382 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Racoon dogs live in earths or setts or to use the correct term dens,there different to racoons they have in USA.Search you tube for them as they do a bit with them in scandinavia and eastern europe with hounds,spitz's and terriers.Wish we had them here is all i'll say .
