Millet 4,497 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 All my dog's are broke to my own livestock be it ferret/hawk/chicken's and quail just use a simple no command when ever the pup interested..they sharp get to know what they can and cannot chase.. Quote Link to post
Malt 379 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Aye, break them in now and it'll be good practice for when your balls finally drop and you've got kids about the place with pet rabbits, etc! Quote Link to post
Moll. 1,793 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 They soon learn 'places' they are not allowed to kill rather than species if you get my drift. 1 Quote Link to post

My dogs aren't overly fond of cats, but they won't touch the wife's one about the house or in the garden. They'd still chase him if they came across him anywhere else though.. Quote Link to post
dytkos 18,097 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Mine regularly run through free range chickens, ducks and geese but will take a phezzie (Whin speak) whenever they can. Wouldn't trust them with the chooks if I wasn't there mind. Have you been away in a young offenders centre Dances? You haven't posted much recently Cheers, D. Quote Link to post
