How exactly, do you tie a dead chicken to the dog who killed it?

Once they are house broken, they will hold it. We always let them out right before crating them, and as soon as they are let out of the crates. Dogs do not poop where they sleep (so proper crate size is important), unless they are sick, and then we attend to them differently. My DW is a vet tech, so if one of our dogs is sick, he goes to work with her.

Once again, you are thinking of a dog as a human, or worse a small child. Believe me, if this method were cruel, don't you think I would have to chase, grab, and stuff my dogs into their crates everyday? All we have to do is say, "go to bed boys!" and they charge into their respective crates. As far as feeding goes, they are fed twice a day, morning and night. We've had many dogs, only one was a self-feeder like a cat, but the other dogs that weren't would gobble down her food. They must have controlled diets and feeding times or they would look like someone who ate all 3 meals a day at Dunkin' Donuts. We do have water for them in the crates, but they hardly touch it during the day. IMHO people who do not treat dogs this way end up with fat, undisciplined dogs, and probably a trashed house or property. If you still see this as cruel, or equate it to anything a dirtbag like Michael Vick has done, YOU need to do some research.

You can do just about anything with Duct Tape. Of course there are dogs in which this won't work with, but it's worth a a try. It worked for my Dad and Grandfathers chickens/dogs, and those dogs were hunting dogs. My dog hasn't killed one yet, but if she does, she is history on my property. End of story.

PS...I love my dog but I'm getting nothing from her. My chickens will at least feed me. And when I first mentioned this, I didn't say leave the chicken on the dog until it rots. I just said for a couple days.

We crate train as well. The big 65 lb dog down to the 1lb mini poodle. It is a key to control and discipline.

Have you read the books or seen the DVD's by the Monks of New Skete? Must reads for new dog owners or those wanting a dog for the first time.

in the very same way that you tie the dog with the dead chicken hanging from its neck to its owner, of course!

I didn't read the six pages of replies, but as to the OP.

Our dog was a chicken killer; I used binder twine and tied one of the dead stiff chickens to the dog’s collar, with about five feet of slack.
I did make her drag it around for about two weeks, we wouldn't let her near the house when we where home, after a day or two, you could see the change in her. She became afraid of the chicken.
That was over eight years ago, she has never offered to bother the chickens to this day.

Dogs kill out of sport, something runs, they give chase, it is just what dogs do. Once the chicken was dead and stiff, it didn’t interest her any longer, she never offered to eat it or chew on it, she spent the first day running from it.

The binder twine did break a couple of times, and I retied it. I used it so that if she did get out and get caught around something, she could break free.

You just can't own a chicken killing dog and have chickens, something has to give.

You say that like eating all meals at DD is a bad thing?? How would I keep my figure if I didn't??

Now back to the topic at hand, since you mentioned fast food, You could always pay the guy in the chicken suit from chic-fil-a to come over and knock the stuffing out of your dog, so he will be scared of your chickens big brother. I would say get the Sandiego Chicken, but I think he makes too good of pay to beat up dogs, where the chic-fil-a guy probably is making minimum wage so slipping him a couple bucks may double his/her wages for the day. Maybe you could get the chicken to beat your dong with a dead chicken then tie it to them too.

P.S. it must be chicken costume, having the guy dressed like the statue of liberty for taxes will not work you will just have a dog scared of people bearing torches, or scared of green buildings.

I might not be a bad idea to have a dog wary of people bearing torches... just in case you are ever attacked by an angry mob. I might train for pitchforks, too.

LOL!

BY the time you have trained for torches, pitch forks, bottle throwing, bad language, car flipping, and a smorgasbord of other angry mob behaviours, the dog will surely think twice about the wickedness of its behaviour (and/or the sanity of its owner)!

Lends a whole new perspective to what they said on The Simpsons - "There's no justice like angry mob justice".
