:welcome
Your flock sounds like a very wonderful bunch. And those breeds! :love :drool

So sorry for the losses :hugs

Previously I've had Spanish breeds, but this time I've gone international! They are mostly recent additions, so I am looking forward to getting to know them all better ~ and for them to get used to me!

Thank you :hugs
 
Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.
Sorry one of your dogs is naughty and killed some of your chickens. Any of my three would slaughter my flock with glee.
I would love to see some of the chicken photography you must have in your collection!

Thank you! :D

The dog in question has been a great challenge; he was around 8 months old when we got him from a shelter, with a bunch of issues and zero training. He now respects boundaries, so like the other two he politely stays outside the chicken fencing - but should a chicken get out or the fencing go down (this happened with strong winds) then all bets are off.

Are your three dogs Dobies? Are they actively interested in the chickens?

I desperately need to sift thorough and sort photos. Delighted to share some of the chicken ones with people who are actually interested in such things!!

I had three at one time but I'm down to just the one in my avvy.
This is my current gang.

ETA: And to answer your question about my dogs being actively interested in the chickens, the answer is YES! They would love to invite them in for dinner!!
