from where my German Shepard Saydee is tied..Saydee didn't even act like anything was going on. My son and 2 of his friends was in the garage..the tom turkey kept gobbling..I yelled out and ask Ben if Saydee had a chicken..he ran up to look.I ran up after them, I thought maybe sour hen was in a foot trap..{Saydee still not paying attention to the chicken crying for help.} Ben seen the fox, the fox was throwing the chicken up trying to get a good hold on her. Ben ran to the garage to get the rifle, by the time he got bad up the hill the fox was already gone. All he could find of our hen was feathers. None of the dogs in the hollow paid any attention to what was going on. We have a german shepard, great dane mix, a stray beagle and a poodle!! I am getting rid of all of them except for the poodle. What breed of dog would be a good family/predator dog? We have to keep Saydee tied..she wants to bite any one that is not family. I have given her away twice, but my husband won't let her go. I have no use for her, Saydee also killed my hen turkey, Any way..what would be a good dog to keep fox and other predators away? DJ
