We have bald eagles they could totally carry off a toy dog.

As in 'Merica bald eagles? Yikes! If I had a dog I'd walk them with those spiky-looking collars. They don't even have to be spiky, just some cloak that looks scary from above.

Are there other bald eagles? Or is it just like a golden eagle with a receding hairline?

We got what, hawks, eagles, and falcons here, all of which would be capable of killing a lil dog.

I don't see peregrines (there are pics of them locally) dive bombing on a rat dog, but in the words of Serge Ibaka, how hungry are you?
