EggstraSpecialHens Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Today my daughter had her first egg from Madeline (copper black marans) - clever girl! Only got them yesterday. But I am ready to kill the dog (only joking). Anyone else had a hyperventilating dog over the fact that we now have hens in his garden? Any sage words of wisdom as so far he has managed to trample all over my sweet pea and lettuce seedlings in his efforts to get on the window sill. He then proceeded to jump on my Duresta sofa with soiled up paws He is well and truly in the doghouse and he just keeps charging from one end of the living room to the other. He is driving me potty. He keeps whining and panting and shaking. We have had him on the lead walking past them and he engaged four paw wheel drive which took some pulling back. He has also forgotten what "no" means. The other dog is intrigued but quite content. Not agitated. I will be hairless by the end of the day at this rate. OH has also informed me that he is out tomorrow in a meeting so I am on my own - cheers sweetie - love you too (NOT!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggasperated Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 No, my lab is frightened of my girls - he thinks they give him a sharp shock (doesn't realise it's the electric fence, daft thing) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EggstraSpecialHens Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 sorry I cant offer any advice I hope he calms down soon sounds like a nightmare hopefully the novelty will soon wear off He is not normally - has now gone from being World's Best Dog to Worst over night. Got some serious reassurance to do with him I think and lots of hot dog bribing. Hens couldn't care less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm...maybe that's the solution. He doesn't appear to want to eat them but play. He is young, but every time they move he thinks it is game time. Thank God they are in a WIR.
