A dog killed my favorite young hen. They have been on our property off and on for days. I actually found the owners of both dogs, but one says the dog ran away in January and they can't catch it, and the other owner, all I've been able to talk to is their kid. I have called the dog warden multiple times, but the dogs are gone by the time he gets here, and he has no traps available right now to loan us. Probably sick of hearing from me anyway. I don't want to shoot the dogs but I am going to be tempted to if they come back. I never found Chloe's body but I can tell by the signs that it was a dog...after a while you can tell, it was obvious there was a chase and several times where she got away. I am just devastated and if I saw them right now I would kill them any way I could. And I love animals, including dogs... I don't know if I should go back and tell the owners I THINK their dog killed our hen...or wait to try and catch the dogs yet again.
So to all dog owners who think it's ok to just let your dog run...don't be surprised if it doesn't come home. And remember that if your dog kills someone else's pet, whether it's another dog, cat, chicken, duck, goat, whatever...you have broken someone's heart and ruined their day for days to come.
