Wait, what? The eagle grabs the dog, later drops it from the sky, but is credited with saving the dog’s life?

This sounds like eagle sh!t. I have seen large bald eagles struggle to fly with a 3-4 lb. pink salmon. An 18 lb. poodle? I doubt it.

While I don’t doubt the talon wounds, I don’t think that there is a bald or golden eagle out there that can lift and 18 lb poodle.

It's a bad idea to let eagles get near dogs.

In the early 90’s, while on vacation with the family..we were on an Alaskan cruise...I begged off yet another visit to an Indian museusm, went for a run, and stumbled across the Alaskan Raptor Rehabolitation Center, outside of Sitka. One of the best afternoons I’ve ever spent. Got to hold an injued eagle while they resplinted his wing, and also wore one of the heavy gloves as the eagle perched on my arm. The birds, thogh big, are amazingly light..and the strength in their talons is unreal. Very powerful. Also, they absolutely stink to high heaven. It’s awfulMost of their diet is carrion, so they don’t need a sense of smell..thank Gawd for them.. I still sponsor a bird each year..when it’s released they send me a clip....

FOWLER: Careful.
Hawks and squirrels eagles and poodles don't get along together.
(the Hawk eagle starts making squawking sounds)
KRAMER: Ohhh. another interesting confrontation. This could be spicy. Yeah, George bring him over.
GEORGE: Uh.
FOWLER: No, you idiot! Hawks eat squirrels eagles eat poodles!
