Bear came back, moseyed across the lawn and headed down the creek the other way. Dogs have been very good at alerting on it even from inside the house so we just watched it leave.

2 days ago it was about 20' from the run. I'm more surprised it didn't go for the bucket of chicken feed which is usually sitting about 3' from the creek's edge, which is right across from where the dogs had treed it.Oh for heaven sake. It has not seen your coop? Never tried ?
My stupid 12 pound little schipperke would chase bears. She also had selective hearing. So stressful
Schips are heck on wheels...
I am not sure how we got so lucky here...
They get the fenced in backyard and the chickens get the front yard! They've only met once when the dogs got out - it was fine!
Our two are father & daughter - mom got out during a storm and got hit in the road outside our homeFiery wanted to kill my chickens. She was 14 when we moved to this place and we got the chickens. She was half blind with cataracts and mostly deaf. Athena the GSD puppy would follow her around everywhere and let me know where she was. Fiery hated Athena. She hated Zeus even more. She only really loved cats.
Now an elderly Athena has to deal with a puppy.
