Mtnboomer
Crowing
He is a pure bred Pittadore. In other words a pit/lab mixed mutt. We got him from a rescue at 3mos. I trained him myself. Aside from all the basic "good dog" training, I introduced him to the chickens on day one. His time with them was short at first and very supervised and grew from there. He chased at first but never really tried to catch (even though he easily could). He was called off and would stop his chasing. He is just over a year old now and about 60lbs of pure muscle. He all but ignores the chickens except when the rooster mounts a hen. He is fascinated and his curiosity gets the better of him and he has to check it out. Or when we get a new rooster. He investigates the new comer who always runs from him and he playfully follows but I call him off just to remind him not to chase.What breed of dog do you have? Did you raise it from puppy or later? What training does it have? our 15 year old border collie is afraid of the birds and will not go out into the yard with them, mostly due to her being challenged by a rooster last year.
