I wouldn't do it- regardless of what the dog might do, it would probably
terrify the gerbil!

Hello everyone :)
My gerbil tank is next to my dog's bed (in the den with the computer) and
since the aquarium is on a stand my dog didn't notice the gerbils until now
:) She has just been staring...and watching them run around...(she is a
tall dog, which is why she can see them)...I was wondering how my dog
*might* react if I let the gerbil run on the floor by her. I'm not going to
do this without some opinions first though. Whenever she sees a squirrel in
the back yard she viciously barks at it and tries to chase it...however I
have never seen her actually CATCH a squirrel so I dont know what she would
do...I was thinking that maybe she thinks the gerbils are squirrels...
Just wanted a few opinions :)
Thanks again,
Jason
