Eeek a RAT...Terrier

The other day Teri was watching Ashton while I worked. I came home and she told me she watched Calie kill a mouse in the backyard. Calie then brought it onto the porch dead. She told me because she wasnt letting Ashton go outside and that was why. So I went outside and didnt see the mouse anywhere. I assumed Calie had either taken it somewhere and hid it or the mouse was still alive and ran away.
Later that night I was in bed working on the computer when Mark came home. He came into the room and Calie and Pebbles came in to greet Mark too. Calie came over by me and then moved over to the end of the bed. All the sudden in the middle of sentence Mark goes...Ohhhhh! And grabs my notebook by Calie and goes outside. Apparently Calie had moved the mouse into my bed in the covers on Mark's side and moved it when Mark came in to show Mark. I had no idea it was right next to me the whole time!!! FILTHY!!! Now I need new bedding! Mark says Calie was just very proud of her kill and was just showing it off like a present. Gross!! But that is why they call her a Rat Terrier, they kill rats and mice. It was the first time we have seen it though and hopefully the last.
