Adorable! Good job!
I am slowly socializing our best behaved dog with our chickies, both at home and on the farm. The dog (Chilly) is young and drivey but very obedient by nature, yet I am not letting her loose around them so far. I prefer to do it slowly but surely, there is no need to rush. I prefer to desensitize her to poultry completely rather than try to restrain her, no matter how obedient she is.
My soul dog, a Weimaraner (over the rainbow bridge now) was PERFECT with all of my pets (despite the fact that she was trained for hunt tests) - she used to lick my rabbit until he looked like he got rained on,
she was absolutely ok with my friends' geese and swans, but sadly I didn't get into the chickens while I had her. (I just didn't know how marvelous they are!) I am sure she would have loved my chickie babies also.
