I wish her dog would die... :'(

Thing is, they HAD suspicions that her dog might have killed the chickens that somehow got under the face into her yard, and they hid them from me, blatantly LIED to me about it actually...
and despite the fact two chickens have been found dead over there... she STILL adamantly turns around and says no way would her dog ever do such a thing?
Okay, so maybe no proof that he did it. The rooster that was dead over there, he had no bite marks on him, no evidence to confirm the dog killed him. But the chicken today? The dog BIT her and she died.
She has no bite marks on her either.
The only reason they KNOW he did it, was because they witnessed it. If they hadn't, it would have been another case of "Unknown causes"


They shouldn't be trying to cover up for a chicken killing dog.
What next? My dads and my cat?
One of my Poms?
Some other random pet that wanders the street?


I mean, I fully understand okay, fair enough, if it goes into someone elses backyard... but a dog she claims is "trained" not to touch them, shouldn't touch them, even in its own backyard.

My brother owns an American Pitbull.
Wild rabbits, birds, cats and all kinds of strange creatures wander into my brothers yard. His Pitbull doesn't attack any of them, doesn't even lift a snout. Why? He actually IS trained, unlike this stupid dog that belongs to a more stupid owner.

Not for nothing, but have your read your posts? Wow . . . I understand that you suffered a loss, but I am having a hard time empathizing with you, since you come across as very rude yourself. It might be time for a quick bit of self-examination to think about how you might appear to your neighbors, if you are having difficulty gaining their cooperation. After all, that "moronic, alcoholic, mentally messed up weirdo, who even on her best sober day, doesn't have the brain capacity of a squirrel" might think of you in equally derogatory terms and might be tickled to death if all of your chickens died. On the other hand, she might have thought that an obedience trained dog might have been able to withstand the temptations of your flock. Not every person recognizes how serious that temptation might be.

Hatred is an ugly thing, as your posts prove. I'm sorry about your loss, but you need to stop casting blame and start learning from the experience so you can move on.

I understand your frustration and am sorry that this happened.

I do have a question that I will throw out to the universe.

Why do certain dog owners think that it is okay to bring their dogs when visiting other people?

A dog belongs at HOME unless otherwise invited.

We have two dogs, so I'm not picking on all dog owners.... I'm just saying, WHY do they think this is okay to just show up with their dogs?

My In-Laws do this, and it ticks me off completely.... and then they look at me like it is MY problem when my big dogs go nuts when their little yappy rat is in MY house.


Again, sorry for your loss!

I have to agree with this.

OP, we know that you are angry, but please don't be rude to other people. It may not seem like it but this sounds like an accident, its not the dogs fault. Its not the owners.

Her dog is NOT obedience trained.
And she is a headcase. She suffers severe depression issues caused by things that happened to her in her past. And she IS an alcoholic. She drinks more than 5 litres of alcohol a day. She has brain damage, eye damage, and liver damage because of it.

And when she doesn't take her meds (and quite often she forgets) she comes over here and takes it out on everyone other than herself. I've lost count of the amount of times she's come over here when I've been minding my own business, and verbally abused me for no good reason.
She's the reason I moved out of my fathers house in the first place. But I couldn't tell him that.
The ONLY reason I came back here was because of some extremely bad circumstances and I'm still trying to get my life back together from them.
Now I suffer from bipolar disorder, but I don't ever use it as an excuse to walk over to anybody elses home and attack them.

You DO NOT know her, so you can't assume I say what I say out of hate. I say it because its the TRUTH.

Yes an accident that has been a long time coming.
Countless times her dog has been bought over here and has either chased my chickens into a corner, or actually managed to grab a hold of them, or it sits there watching the ones it can't get at, while jumping up and down wishing it could get to them.
Not even three weeks ago, she had her dog over in our pool area, and I was sitting by the pool. These same three young chicks came through the fence to come over and sit on my lap.
They've never been afraid of animals, because the animals that live in this house (my dogs, my brothers dog, our cat) have never chased them, or frightened them. And given they live here, it was perfectly okay for them to come to me by the pool.

Her dog however took this as a cue to leap across the paved area, and grab one of my young ones in his mouth. The only reason he didn't kill it then was because I was close enough to smack him over the head with a plate.
My dad then proceeded to kick the crap out of him.
The dog ran so fast, he actually fell in the pool.
(in ground pool)

But yes, I completely understand, the dog did not plan to bite this chicken, and he's never tried it before, it was a total accident to be sure.

Sorry. It is hard. Chickens have just as much personality as any other pet and you grow attached to them. I had a little araucauna hen that I adored and so did my daughter and I would go get her everyday and 10 am. and bring her to the deck and she would stay there all day until my daughter go home from school. She ate my peace lily one day and died 2 days later. We assume that is what killed her. She died right in front of my daughter. It was one of the hardest things I have ever lost. We cried for days and the void will never be filled. She was a special girl. I still go out to the coop in the morning and wish that poor little Lady Bird could just be there waiting for me.

As for the dog and owner.

I'm not a dog person anyway.

Oh my, I am so heartbroken for your loss.

If I was in your shoes I'd have only one goal in mind...Moving ASAP!

We keep a 22 by our back window and dont hesitate to use it if need be. We had a big red dog come to our house over and over again. It ate all of the cat food and always left a pile of BIG poo behind. I finally wrote a letter and told them that he was eating all of our cats food and pooing in our yard, we have 2 dogs and they have NEVER been in a neighbors yard. I let them know that I like BIG Red dog but not in my yard and to please keep him home because my husband said he would have to shoot him if he ever came back. We have not seen big red poopie dog since.
