My family has a 3 year old ladradoodle and she tolerates the Chickens outside but she is a little jealous of the chicks. How can we make it so we don’t have to be constantly worried about her getting to them. We don’t free range.
My wife has eight dogs. If we have chicks/adults in the house I try to lavish attention on the jealous types when ever I take care of the birds. My problem is the house serama have accepted the dogs as part of their flock. When the dogs pile together to sleep the serama want to pile in with them. Not safe-a sleeping dog has little patience with intrusions. So I have to be sure that the birds are locked up at nap time.
