I always figured a shotgun was the best method to prevent pigeons from making a mess. I mean it's hard for a DEAD pigeon to be messy, am I missing something here?

Pigeons, chihuahuas, rats, not much comparison in looks or habitat. Wonder if they thought of getting the hawk's eyes checked.
Of course, the other side of the coin is, who cares which of the three varieties the hawk gets, it's all a service to mankind.

Need to edit this to get cats include, then 01 is on my side......

Scap an entire successful program over one chihuahua. What a moronic solution. Since there really isn't much difference between a chihuahua and a rat IMO (except that the rat is probably quieter!), I'd give the bird high marks for it's actions. Well done.

A chihuahua is barely even a dog anyway.

I used to deliver newspapers in my car, and this one house had one of those things. It was at the end of the street where it was convienient for me to use their driveway to turn around in. That thing would "yip yap" at me every day. I used to insult it, but in a nice voice so the owners wouldn't know I was saying mean things to it. I would tell it, it was the ugliest thing I'd ever seen, and stuff: "What are you?" "Come back when you are a real dog!" "you're so ugly, yes you are" "My cat is bigger than you" One day when I went to collect (Motor routes collected monthly) the lady answered the door and there this thing was yip yapping at me. I bent down and said "Hi there" and petted it. The lady told me "That's odd, that she is letting you pet her because she doesn't like anybody." If only she knew how it all started. Later, if the dog missed me, it would run down the street and I would notice this thing running madly down the sidewalk next to me while I was driving. I would have to stop, insult it a few times, (hey, it liked it!) and give it a ride home. The lady could never understand why it liked me so much. (and neither could I for that matter)
So the moral is: Don't get one of these things attached to you, just ignore it!!

serotta, they had the eyes checked, the vet said that he had eyes like a hawk. Don't get me wrong, though, I like the idea, so what if a few chihuahuas get owned by a flying predator?

Chihuahua - rat what's the difference. I say get more hawks!
Alternatively get a real dog that can fight back.
