In a couple weeks, we will be getting a puppy, which is a Border Collie (mom) and Black Lab (dad) mix.
Do any of you have suggestions or tips on how to properly introduce the puppy to our existing young chickens and our baby chicks/keets that will come in a couple weeks?
How can I train it to accept the flock as family so it will protect against predators?
Will a raccoon attack a baby puppy? I plan to put the dog house down by the coop, but can move it there later if the pup is in danger at first.
I'm sure I will have many more questions to come, but will leave it at that for now.
