I thought it was bad when I had a cat, with the odd dead bird found in the garden, but now.......


My Dog has killed more birds in the last 12 months than my cat did in the 12 years I had her

I have discovered a birds nest in the top part of my chimnea too, and this rain isnt helping as it brings all the worms in the garden to the surface, so getting quite a few birds in there now

However the dog keeps on catching them, and killing them

Is there any way I can stop him from doing it?

Didnt think dogs normally bothered with birds

Painkiller

If it is a hunting dog it will get birds as for the question above dont let it out in your garden job done

Sonic (man), Sonic (dog) also has a bit of a thing for birds, he has got a couple in the past 2 weeks but both chicks that have fallen out of nests into the garden - He aint bright enough to catch big birds

Shark Man

Ahh that bring back the memories of my dobbeman bringing some poor blackbird/sparrow that he jumped up and plucked from the air when they flew off the fence as if he was catching a frisbee. They were still alive, and unharmed, just a little stunned.

Arthritus eventually stopped him from doing it
