Today huck (the next door neighbors yellow lab) got out when the hens were free ranging he got one of the maran hens by the tail and pulled allot of feathers but not wounding I checked. I got him down on the ground and pinned him in 30 seconds it must have felt like a freight train hitting that dog at 60+ mph because I decked that dog to the ground. I do not hold his owners too responisble but I do think they should be able to control him (blah blah blah the whole dog speal again) I think that I will take him over here for some overssion training so he won't even look at my chickens it worked on my dog and she even tried to chase huck off but she was in her own electric fence. the chickens were very close to there yard so I believe that it is mostly my responsibility. If it doesn't work I will have to cut back unsupervised free ranging or get a permant fence but my mom wouldn't like that.
Emergency ?
I think the hen may be in shock although she doesn't have any wounds what should I do?
Any other suggestions ?
Thanks sorry for the vent/ emergency/ update post
