    I miss my ducks :(

    I wanted to let you all know the update. I ended up lockInv the dog in a shed building with food and water, it was the only way to keep her put up. A week after the attacks I went to visit my hubby in Illinois, he was there for work for several weeks. I picked some adult ducks so my boys would...

    leaving not a trace or feather

    I am working on that. I called the local shelter to ask them, and they thought she'd be adopted or that they would find her a rescue. She is a pure German Shepard and very loyal, but she can't be here. It is so hard because I do love her and she has been good to us, but we just can't have that.

    leaving not a trace or feather

    I tried but I wimped out, couldn't look in her face and shoot. If my husband had been home (he's a truck driver, so I guess I need to toughen up!) she would have been dead. I am not sure what I am going to do. Thought of calling someone to take care of her.

    I miss my ducks :(

    Thanks you all, I am searching, deeply. I have covered a lot of ground, tomorrow I am going to recheck and check a few places I hadn't yet. I was also finally able to get the injured duck, he has a pretty decent gash, I think I will see if our vet can stitch it up. I put him in clean shavings...

    I saw use catch the last one. She had eaten one of the dead birds. And today I just happenned to look out the window as she was catching the live duck. It explains why there was no barking. She wouldn't have barked at herself. She has only been out with them for about 3 weeks. She broke the dog...

    It was our dog, I just caught her with a duck in her mouth, no wonder they were not coming out from under the house. Angry does not even begin, she is gone!

    I miss my ducks :(

    Oh My Goodness it was my own dog! I caught her with one of the remaining ducks in her mouth. I don't know what I am going to do. And the hurt duck is hiding in a place I can't even reach to try to help it.

    I haven't heard any ducks at all, or I would think they had run. If it wasn't for the other two that I found dead I would wonder. But also because of the two dead I do wonder if they are hiding, but I have combed over all nearby hiding places. Today I'm going further out, but I haven't heard...

    leaving not a trace or feather

    We've had fox and opossums, both leave a mess, oh and a neighbor dog. What can carry off a duck and leave absolutely not one feather behind? I have searched out to about a 300 foot radius, and not a feather (more tomorrow, truck drivers wife and the kids were done with me being out 'gone' and...

    ***UPDATE...ALL DEAD :( ***Female duck went missing, now what??

    I am so sorry , I had this happen with my chickens. Fox came and took one during the day and then a week later came back with her kits, it is an awful feeling when you find that all are gone. So sorry you are having to deal with this loss.
