Well, large, while I'm sure that dawg was spectatin' all over the ball, this is one place where I'd follow the MLB "F1 guns down a pigeon" precedent and roll out 9.01c.
Critter interference is a "situation not covered" by the Rules, according to well-established professional interpretation.

Then do what seems right.
