Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Scrambles83]

Thanks, Alex. My views often upset the dog lovers. I know many responsible owners, & many more irresponsible ones. When you've been herded by a pack of pit bulls tolerance goes out the window fast!

My husband had a frightful experience when Violet was just over 1yo. He was walking Scrambles and Vi was in the pram when a very aggressive wandering pittie type dog approached and came at them.
He had to swing Scrambles around on his harness to keep him out of reach while turning the pram to keep Violet protected, all the while screaming at the dog and kicking at it to get it to go away!!
Horrifying to think what could have happened...

That sounds like one scary story!

So many bad stories. I love my perimeter fence but enhancements have been planned for this summer to make it more predator resistant. Sadly that will likely eliminate Mr Bunny from visiting.

The girls will miss Mr Bunny but will be safer so that’s the number 1 priority

Most responsible owners get it. It's the other sort make me so mad.

I don’t have a dog. But I do walk my chickens sometimes. (I don’t care about the looks I get) we even go for a drive sometimes.

I will miss Mr. Bunny, Mrs Bunny, and the baby bunnies. I can't think of any way to allow bunny access and keep them safe.
