Hi Navy and welcome to BYC :frow We're so happy you've decided to join us :ya

Loved your intro. I retired AF in 92...

ETA: Pop on over and visit us on the Tennessee Thread, there's also an East Tennessee threat, but I'm not familiar with it.

Wow, you've got it all going on!! Congrats on getting back to the country... that's exactly what we're planning, just may take a while longer. I would suggest still trying to socialize your dog to the chickens in a controlled setting (on leash)... teach him the "leave it" command and give high value rewards when he looks away. I have a blue pittie who was also just as crazy excitable and she now does great around my birds. Separating only works until it doesn't, just takes a minute for disaster to happen. At least when you take away the mystery, the chickens aren't quite so desirable.

This is Daisy... she still gets excited, but will stop immediately if I say "Leave It!"

Oh, here's a thread that may be helpful:
How did YOU train dogs to leave chickens alone?

Welcome! Glad you decided to join, nice intro! I have two dogs as well, the Staffi mix needed a little training and is good with the chooks, my other boy has only been with me for 2 months and needs a little training.... We’ll get there. Sounds like you’ve found your spot!!!
