My neighbour has 2 roosters and a female duck. I know that is odd and it is a long story but they are all very happy. Their coop is like fort knox and I can't seem to find how this breach was made but I have a rooster in my yard. I leave my sliding doors open so my 2 shihtzus can go in and out in the summer. I was in the bathroom when I heard a whole lot of clucking and barking going on. I started screaming NO from in the house. When I got outside there were feathers everywhere and the rooster was laying with his leg out to the side. My one dog was dancing around it and the other was...deep sniffing it's wing? I can't think of another way to explain it. I told them to go in the house and they did. I got a towel and went out to get the rooster. Before I even got down the steps he ran into my laurel bushes. These laurel bushes are at least 4 feet wide with branches almost in a complete criss cross pattern underneath. I cannot get to him and he takes off every time I get near. I don't know how hurt he is or if he is only that he has been under there for hours and I can't seem to get him out. The dogs are ofcourse under house arrest until I can get him.
His owner is not home and I am not sure what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! I did notice some feathers with blood on them but cannot see any blood on the rooster. I am wondering if one of the dogs grabbed his tail feathers and they ripped out. She did cough up a feather later.
