You need to tell them the you are contacting the local sheriff's office and filing a report. Then you are contacting the animal shelter and filing a report. Then, tell them that if you see their dogs on the loose again around your birds you will shot to kill.
Then hand them a bill for 30 bucks a bird, explain to them that it is not just the replacement costs, it is the medication, the feed, the time and effort and the structures you have to make to keep a decent flock of birds. Then, with a pleasant smile, ask them if they would like some fresh eggs every so often.
GIVE IT TO EM. sorry for your loss.
