<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BMRT, post: 1800310, member: 10892&quot;]Everything we had already planned for. As previously mentioned, this isn’t the first time we’ve had a very young pup however I appreciate the article and the suggestions!

He was around 3 months when we got him...beautiful dog. Obedience school, the works. One unfortunate afternoon about 3 years into his life he took it upon himself to attack the coops. To this day I have no idea what set him off. I knew the breed was powerful but it was the first time I’ve ever seen it first hand. In under 10 minutes he had yanked the chicken wire and the entire flock of chickens save for 3 had been destroyed. When he was done he went for the rabbits in their enclosure and I went to stop him. The scuffle ended when my father finally reached us. I was lucky it didn’t go worse. Learned an important lesson that day. It really is a relationship between human and dog. Both need a degree of respect and willingness to work together.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
