A lot of things i thought were cute and nice like dolphines, ducks, cats (i saw one cat eat anothers new born), dogs (multiple cases of eating dead owners due to a variety of reasons starting from trying to wake em up to other malicious reasons), hamsters etc turned out to be wrong . Raccoons are the only thing i believe in anymore so give it to me straight are they as they seem ?
Edit : To reduce confusion and to not have to answer to duplicate comments NO I do not hate animals . I think they are all neat and they are what they are and I don’t hold them up to humans standard but I’m not an animal person like cat people or dog people either . I hope this clears it up.
Nature gets brutal sometimes. One of my dogs once killed another dog, but she’s always been a total sweetheart to me.
Raccoons are cute, curious, critters with thumbs. They like to wash their food. They’re adorable!
But they are also wild creatures that will bite when scared and can carry dangerous diseases.

Was it a smaller dog that was eating your dogs food or that surprised your dog?
She was named Beta, a yellow lab who was housed with a yorkshire terrier, constantly yapping and nipping at her.
Eventually she snapped.
At the time the owner was pregnant so there was no way they could take the risk.
My wife and I adopted her because we already had another dog from the litter, her sister Violet. We renamed her to Veda.
Never had a problem. She growls softly when her lines are crossed but is otherwise a perfectly snuggly girl. Getting on in years but still with us.
