for many of us, chickens are loved animals that provide us with income, and joy. when a dog ( or any predator) is killing them it is money lost and time wasted. we love dogs too, but rules are rules. i personally do not see how tying a chicken around a dogs neck is torture, what about the poor defensless bird that got murdered? dogs need trained and its up to the owners to do it. farm life isnt all gravy, so get a grip. i lost 3 laying hens in 1 night,not only are we out money, but we are out the entertainment of our hens too. so, hang on people. train ur dogs with thatever works. however, i wonder if my neighbors would like seeing their dog with a dead chicken around its neck? it beats a .22 dont it? cause thats how it was on our farm when i was little. get a grip, and train ur dog, or better yet, get rid of ur chickens, since u dont want to stop the murders. when a dog starts laying eggs, and making money, they will get more respect. we love dogs, but like children, they need to be shown right from wrong.
