Deer are usually our problem. Deer will most certainly eat watermelon plants, as my neighbor found out last year. I suspect I'll have to deal with deer this year.

Coons tend to prefer the corn around here, but my uncle has had coons sabotage his eatin' melons before.

We have these little dogs, part-terriers they are. The ringleader is the mother, she's about five years old. She does NOT like raccoons worth a little bit.

We've caught a few in the live trap over the years, to try and keep em out of the corn. The dog has alerted us to a coon in the trap by setting in on it.

You'd think she'd make a good huntin' dog, but she's never minded well enough.
