The Blood Price

A working dog needs a job, and Miko decided his calling is chasing drones. Of the many he's fetched into drone Valhalla, they all bite back. This chomp christening and blood baptism is simply part of the propeller cycles of life here for a professional drone downer as he bites and banishes the buzz bots.
Miko is fine - a tiny nick on his tongue, which he ignores as he insists I fly more.
This is why I only let him chase this drone style—it is not big enough to cause significant injury and robust enough that it doesn't disintegrate into a thousand swallowable shards at the slight touch of a tooth.
At this stage, I'm probably the single largest retail purchaser of the EMax Tinyhawk III and III+ in my country. Maybe even greater than all purchasers combined. Yes, there is a budget for toys for the boys.

It just so happens I have a household of visitors, and they get to sit in the spare goggles. I was happy for the additional eyes inspecting the high corners of the room and the insides of Miko's mouth. In return, they get to experience the thrills of high-speed flying under the furniture.

Anyway, Miko is asking me if it's time to fly again.

Hahaha say whutttt!!! So bloodbath on the dog and the drone isnt broken? My dog also loves to chase it but I really have the idea he will shred it into pieces so keeping it far away.

Miko is a Hunter hahah!

This drone is small (75mm/56g) and quite durable. I do not fly my larger drones around Miko because they might injure him or he might break them, and the prop guards prevent most injury.

Yeah oké this is really a smaller one then indeed . He thinks it is a frisbee ofcourse haha

Dog Kong, bringing down drones with a bite.
Nice to hear you are #1 drone maker supporter 😉

I'm sorry that your dog bled, and animals being humans love us so much when they get hurt, we also feel a lot of pain.

Miko didn't mind. The cut was small and he kept asking me to fly more for him.

Hmm, good thing the drone has that protection, or it could have been a nasty cut. But dogs (and cats) either love (or hate) drones!

Yep, I don't let him near my larger or smaller drones for that reason - prop protection or not!
