Howdy from Whidbey Island, WA

:frow Hello and welcome! :welcome I'm glad you've decided to join this great community.

Would love to see a picture of your lot. Sounds absolutely beautiful, imagining those eagles flying like it's no big deal. We have a bald eagle at our local zoo. It's sad because they claim it's in a short enclosure due to wing problems but in all honesty, I have been to that zoo quite a bit over 30 years and it hasn't changed since I was a kid.

Enjoyed reading your intro as well :) and I am also struggling with the thought of ever culling off any chickens that I've grown to love and name haha.

This place is full of information, dont hesitate to ask! I hope you find what you're looking for :)
 
How are your Rotts doing around the chickens?

They are not doing anything around the chickens! ;) Both my kids are super high-drive and I just know what will happen (my 6 yo was so excited that he was vibrating in anticipation, and my girl has less impulse control so she was just trying all she could to get to them). No amount of "slow, steady. repeated introductions" are gonna work with these 2 (which does suck a bit) !!:jumpy

Every one of my Dobies have had very high prey drive. None would have been trusted around chickens. The poultry netting does amazing things to make a dog like that ignore chickens with just one lesson!

I don't have dobermans but my 2 huskies cant stop licking their lips and it doesnt help that I've fed them duck heads in the past.
Those drives!
Dobermans are my moms favorite dig breed but she's never had the chance to own one... after reading what you have to say, i think she would have loved a doberman! Maybe one of these days I'll gift one to her hahaha she would hate me.
Do you have any pics?
