My nieghbors two dogs were in the yard AGAIN this morning - and the youngest one had some how managed to grab my rooster's wing and was pulling it through the fence - my little banty roo is SCREAMING his head off - I try to chase the dogs away but of course they think this is a great came with lots of sound affects.
By the time I got the dog to stop pulling on Clydes wing - the wing is totally upside down ( the underside of wing facing up ) and is weadged in the fence hole I had to twist the wing back into place and pull him free - the whole time yelling at the dog to go home - which is making the roo more scaried - I got him free - looks like a few broken wing feathers - if his wing is broken it would be dragging the ground right? so far he is holding it normally and he is not walking all that great right now I imagine from being sore and alittle bit in shock.
I have NEVER heard a chicken make that kind of noise before and I hope to god to NEVER hear it again - it was like a little child scream for mommy to help him - awful sound.
I keep telling these *&^%$ people to keep there **&&^%^$ dogs locked up - but of course that is not working neither is calling animal control or the police - I guess it is only a matter of time before one of there D&^% dogs kills one of my birds.
( please dont get me wrong I AM NOT a dog hater - but this was in my own yard - and these dogs are not going after my birds for food but for fun )
yesterday this same dog - ran INTO my livingroom when I opened the door to go water a few flowers - these dogs are starting to become a real problem - with NOTHING being done about it.
sorry for venting -
Julie
