I'll tell you what I did ages ago with a dog that loved to kill my birds... if you promise not to tell anybody!![]()
I had always heard that to break a dog from killing chickens, you take one of the birds he killed and tie it around his neck as tight as you can and let it stay there and rot. Well, the dog we had at the time killed about half of my chickens in one afternoon. So I was plenty mad at him. Then I think it was about a week after that when he got hold of another one. I tied that chicken to his neck and after about an hour I look out the window and there he is in the yard eating that chicken. He got it off his neck somehow!![]()
This is the part that worked:
I was so mad, I marched right out there (he saw me coming but apparently didn't care much about what I thought) and he stood there as I walked up to him, grabbed his collar to hold him and then picked up that big rooster by his feet. Can you guess what happened next? Yep! I beat that dog for about 10 minutes with that big rooster!
He never ever looked straight at a chicken again for the rest of his life! He would glance at them sideways and put his head down!![]()
Hey there Lacy. I am still carrying around this doodad I'm my purse but haven't caught up with my friend yet. I haven't forgot!
I tried that with my dog and didn't phase him a bit. Today I grabbed him up by the scruff of his neck and told him about it... when I got done he was jumping around and wanting to play! Ahhh dang dog! If he kills another one I am gonna make him wear it. I was wondering if I went and bought one from the store and made him wear it if he would figure it out. I believe it is going to take some electricity.
