My neighbourghs dogs (of wich everyone on the street complains about) came over while I was gone yeasterday, dessimated my small coop and killed my faveorite EE rooster and his hen. NOT only di the dog kill them, but he didnt even eat them! They were just squeaky toys and when they stopped struggling, just left them there for me to find! They left all manner of foot prints and I know teak put up a fight because his feathers were in multiple places. He was a PET when he was out he follwed me around he allways begged for treat, and loved having his muff petted.
There are leash laws in GA and in Thomas county where i live that animal control seems to ignore. I am about to take it in my own hands. I am infuriated!
BOSTON GA ENFORCE YOUR LEASH LAWS!!!
Luckily, being in GA I leagaly am within my rights to kill the dog if I catch it in the act.

Luckily, even though they tried, they did not get in the big coop, allthough my muscovys face is torn up and my ameraucana roosters comb is torn up in their defense of it. because the dog did manage to dig between the railroad ties and the door.
