This isn't the best picture, because the sun was going down, and the glass was reflecting our bird cage...but anyways....

does anyone know what animal this is? I would've sworn it was a prairie dog, but this animal is at least 30 lbs. It is HUGE!!! Bigger than my pugs! My FI says prairie dogs aren't that big.

He's been living around our yard for the past 3 years...he's comes around, eats the weeds in our flower beds...and he's so cute!!!!

Here's my precious little yard pet. I call him Notchy, or Notch Ears because he has a little notch out of one ear. He's been hanging around for 2 summers now. He has a favorite spot to hang out under the Azalea bushes just behind the Impatients - the dirt is all packed down because he likes to sit there. Some days he's hanging out most of the day in the garden or in various places in the yard
