Need a mans input.

Hey guys,  You may or may not be able to answer this but I have a Armadilla(sp) at my front porch.  It has dug a hole by the brick and is just staying there very neet looking animal.  But my dog is going crazy about it won't stop barking.  My dog is a blood hound.   Will this thing attack my dog or is there any way I can grab it by its shell and move it out back into my pasture and hope it moves on its merry way?  It is as big as a large cat.  I just don't want to grab its shell if it can get its head around to bite me.  Any input on what to do is welcome... Thanks guys Renee A.

Got to be the strangest question ever asked here in the locker room. Mmmmm, how to get rid of an armadillo? Security!!

OH my I really don't want to have to get out the 38.  I still have bad dreams from having to put one of my dogs down after it was run over.   But thanks for the idea it never even entered my mind.  I will say I learned a hard lesson that day about bullets,  Never use full metal jackets when trying to put something out of its misery.   Renee

call the ASPCA, they will remove and relocate it humanely

I would but we don't have one around here.   It is still out there I think something must be wrong with it because its not leaving. 

I would use a 2-iron.  I have also had this same sort of a problem in the past.  They can not see well so you can sneak up to them and prod them and he should jump and run.  I have seen them jump three or four feet straight up.

Have fun!

OH wow they can jump that much eeeek.  I think I will give it a little more time to go on its own.  Thanks for the info.  Renee

I thought you were going to suggest taking the 2-iron and cru****s frickin' skull. Oh, well.

Man, this is Alabamy, not trendy Cali!  Ain't you never see'd the Beverly Hillbillies?!! There ain't no groups with initials like ASPCA, ACLU, or even KKK anymore!! Besides, 'round here, possums are considered vittles, so armadilos would be classified as a "delicacy"!! BwaHahahahahaa!!!!

  Very good one.
