Someone wrote recently about wanting to get a ferret but they have a dog that chases things. I would recommend keeping the dog and the ferrets separate. I lost my first ferret to my dogs. The woman at the pet store told me that my dogs wouldn't bother him although they went after anything that moved. And I had no idea that they could squeeze under a door. Well I decided to keep the dogs in a separate room but the ferret crawled under the door and the dogs killed him. It's 11 years later but I still feel really bad about it.
