Well, you don't say where you are but first thing you should do is document. Pictures of deceased birds, times of death, plus notifcation to local law enforcement (police, sheriffs, animal control), including the neighbors' observations. Find out what the local animal control laws are regarding dogs - then hit your neighbors with a bill for replacement hens. If they won't reimburse you then tell them you will take them to small claims court.Well just notified the husband and he is MAD and that's an understatement!! He is on the warpath so to speak. I convinced him to let me at least talk to him and not go rant over there!!
Well the husband reports that one of your RIR's did make it. She is very stressed, but she is okay. He is bringing her up into our fenced in yard tomorrow for the day. We live out in the county so not sure if leash laws actually exist or not. We are in Ohio. I am upset that all three of your Salmon Favorellas were killed though. They were gorgeous and very friendly!!
I have neighborhood dogs that are free to roam. My own dog does the same. My dogs will not chase another animal as well as the neighbors dogs. I have never had a problem. Were my dog to kill someone Else's chickens, I would take whatever measures it takes to remedy the problem.
