Dogs are killing my ducks and chickens. How do I safely repel them? Ultra sonic?

[jakej1978]

My yard is fenced but the drive way has a 12 foot gap and I can’t install a gate.

A dog has 3x wipes out 30 ducks. I talked to the owner but it continues to happen.

It usually happens at night and it’s not always the same dog.

I don’t want to be mean to the dog, just keep them out.

Any ideas?

Get a dog yourself? either that or call animal control about their dog. If it isn’t the same dog, your chickens should stay locked up

You definitely need to secure your pens.
Obviously the dog should not be on your property but it's no good that your ducks are that vulnerable.
I haven't heard of the ultrasonic repellents working.

I haven’t either. I have considered a dog for that purpose so that may the best idea.

I’ve heard ultra sonic doesn’t work well for dogs, mostly birds and cats so I didn’t think that would work well for me.

I lock the ducks up in the evening but they fly and sneak out. Not all but some. This last incident, a dog got my favorite duck. I liked to put food where she liked to fly up and sit and wait for me to come by in the mornings.

Buy a tank off the dark web some grenades and dig a trench! Prepare for war with the dog and remember get the bastard in the legs! JUST KIDDING call animal control is my best answer Im sorry to hear about this!

I would definitely call animal control, and according to a law in CO, idk where you live but it states that "if something is harming your livestock, and you are out of city limits, it is legal to trap and shoot it"

I'm not saying that you should by any means but it could become a huge monetary loss for you if this keeps happening

Any animal gets the message if you hurt it! I Mean this dog has token 30 lives that's not fair! This dog should pay the price!
