I live in the “terrorized” neighbour hood in NF and it is not a concern at all. I have two small dogs 10 lbs each and just keep an eye on them when they are out in the backyard. I see foxes in our front yard daily. The number of rabbits in the area seems to have dropped but I have also seen them trotting down the street with rats and mice so bring them on. They are easy to live with.
