 1 Weimaraner, 3 hens. Dog takes bone out onto the lawn. Guess who steals bone every time? The hens must like marrow!  :unsure: All life has a pecking order, and Max is well below the hens. These things sort themselves out.

I had three dogs when i took on the chickens and gently and carfully introduced them all to each other. Black tie job and all lol. My cocker spaniel took a distinct attraction to one of the birds and gave it a big love bite. Once she had recovered they became best of friends and now sleep in the same part of the grden.

All joking aside I thought once they had the drive to kill it would cary on but it hasnt he was told off severly and grounded for a full week. He still fancies the odd nip but usually its one that becomes poorly within a short time. I therefore now have a claervoyant dog and am quite happy. so is he cos the loves there treats lol However I will always be wary if he is in the garden on his own with them. Thats how i have such a lovely tan lol
