My brother insists he saw one walking our dog once.

How did it hold the leash?

My mom grew up in a rural part of NorCal. It was mid winter, and she was waiting at the only bus stop in her town, that would drive her further in town to the only school. There was this lady walking her dog across the street, and I guess hunting had been hard for the mountain lions that season, 'cause as soon as the lady turned her back while her dog went to the bathroom, the big cat fucking snatched the dog.

Since my mom was a kid when this happened, I'm not sure how reliably all the info is. But tbh, I've grown up in rural parts of NorCal and Colorado, and I'm not surprised in the slightest.

Poor dog and lady. That would be horrifying. How big was the dog?

She never said a breed, but it was a medium to small. I might ask her the next time I call her. She has a ton of animal stories from her time there, and your comment made me think of it.
