Ok so tomorrow I'm picking up a little Brittany Spaniel puppy she is 12 weeks old. Her parents are both champion bird dogs and her dad is also a show dog so hunting is in the blood. I'm worried about the bred in bird dog with my chickens, ducks, and pigeons. I think that maybe if we teach her that these birds are not for playing or hunting then we should be ok. What do you think?

So I did the first introduction of Maci and the birds. She did really well. That was a moment of several first. We also did our first walk on a leash which she did very well. Then I just let her explore the birds on her own terms and all went well. The roosters where going crazy because their was this thing by their pen. She only pricked her ears when my mallards where trying to fly. I think the chickens and ducks reacted worse that Maci did.
Thanks for all your help! I think that this going to work out GREAT!
