Solved! This CD situation on a dashboard

Post image

I pulled up to this parked Toyota Prius in a Canadian parking lot. Initially in thought they were using this as a sun reflector but it wasn’t sunny or particularly hot. It was still like this when I came back to my car about 25 mins later.

My sister has chickens and when she lets them out in the yard she will put old CDs on the ground. I guess it keeps the hawks away?

Maybe this car has been a bird poop target and they are just trying to keep them away, that is my guess.

When I take my 3lb "dog" to the country I have a legitimate fear that a hawk could grab him. I'm going to tie CDs to him now. Tell your sister I think she's great but that my dog has mixed feelings!

There are other options that can be pretty punk rock.

The coyote whiskers, sold separately, are amazing!

Now I want to get a small dog just so I can buy this! I would add little dog sunglasses and have them groomed with a mohawk!

Just make your dog watch a video of hawks scooping up animals ... he'll come around.

When my Labrador was around 20 weeks old and still pretty small, at the dog park - a big hawk did a full swoop by and decided to keep going... Guess he was just big enough to be safe lol
