We kept hearing a weird noise at night that sounded like a bird getting killed....would worry me to no end. Finally one night my husband and son were outside around 9ish and they heard that same sound. they grabbed a flashlight and walked back into the woods (cautiously!!
). Turned out to be a porky sitting up in a tree. He (she?) kept making the same sound while they watched him.
There's also an adorable You Tube clip of a porky at a zoo enjoying a bit of food.....
That said, 2 of my 3 dogs have been quilled......one had to go to the Emergency Vet (they NEVER do this when the regular vet is open...sigh) and the other one we were able to pull the quills out with pliers.....with alot of breaks for him......so we are NOT thrilled with having them in the yard.
