I have a five month old Bichon Frise puppy, who encountered his first poultry yesterday. I am visiting friends (who are giving me a chicken coop so I can start my own small flock), and when he saw their two ducks and turkey yesterday, he started alert barking and was 100% focused on them. I told him to hush up, and he stopped barking, but I couldn't distract him from them at all. I know ideally I want him to ignore them, but I'm not sure what is the best way to accomplish that. I don't think he was thinking of them as prey though- they are all bigger than him, and I think he was more worried than anything else.
Thanks for your advice!
