maybe the end

They have already demonstrated that they can and will kill YOUR animals on YOUR property... next time you see them, shoot them. Then dispose of them quietly ie. "shoot, shovel, shut up" You have the right to protect your animals and your property.

Sad as it is, I would MUCH rather have a neighbor mad at me than have some dogs terrorizing me, my pets and my livestock. Three S Program... I like that.

Chicken wire is BLA! LOL We made some hutches with it once... HAHAHA THAT was a joke. The rabbits litterally chewed through it! I much prefer good, heavy duty hardware cloth. And hotwire is wonderful. I have one of those dogs that will kill my livestock if I am not watching her like a hawk. So our dog yard is 6' high chainlink with a low wire to prevent digging, another wire about a foot up from that to prevent her pulling apart the chainling (oh yes, she has done that many times) and a top wire to keep her from climbing. Add a 2 Joule, 50-mile fencer to that and the dogs don't go near the fence

An electric poultry fence might be worth the money. I know that is what I would use if I was you. I do not have your problem and glad I dont. But, I also have 4 dogs who have no sense of humor about anyone or anything messin with their buddies........... I would think in the long run they would be worth the money and the piece of mind we all go through.

I think I would definately look into electric poultry fencing. It very well may worth the money.

The dogs killed your livestock and came after YOU. The county won't do nyhing. The owner won't do anything. My suggestion would be to call the sheriff and ask what your legal recourse is. Personally I would have shot the dogs by now and the neighbour would just have to deal with it. Especially after they came after me. If they will go after an adult they will certainly go after a child.

Yes but it has been a while back and theres nothing they can due about it now . AC ordered the 2 crazy ones to be put down because the owner wont contain them . One is gone,i dont know where it went im just glad its gone . The other one is still there but in a kennel .


The other neighbor(theres only 2 neighbors with loose dogs) has 2 but she promised an old man she would keep them if something happened to him,he passed away last summer and she told me the other day she didnt know what to do but they had to leave because they was too much for her . One is on a chain cause he bites .

IF they attack my dog again I will go get traps from the shelter and set them, and you might have by now yes but I couldnt do that to an animal even if it is causing me problems someone else around here would have to .

Im going to fix up the building,cover the windows with wire and get a new lock for the door so that the dogs for sure wont get in . Then they can stay in there until I fix the pens/yard .


But I have til spring to get it fixed so I mean im not in no hurry to do it,just trying to get advise on how to dog proof ,and chicken hawks are really bad here but I think they would be fine cause they would be in a cage ? :/
