I dont have a clue.  All I know is I am pretty sure its canine from all the tracks we saw in the mud the other day.  I would think it was the work of more than one animal.    The bodies are gone, I thought dogs usually leave bodies all over, all there is is feather piles.  I feel so sad for the lil ones, but I am not sure I could have corralled them easily, they have been running loose all summer, no prob and were as close to being wild as you could get, so I was hoping they would be alright.  I always locked them up at night tho but even that was quite a process.  I kind of feel like I should have left the garage open a bit and they might have tried to seek shelter there.  Two piles of feathers are right next to the house, like within 10 feet.   

They loved dustbathing on the south side right up against the house as it was sunny and the dirt is mostly dry due to the eaves of the house, nice soft dirt.  I think they might have been caught in a dustbath, poor babes.

Well we found its the neighbors dog.

I called them tonite, they said they had found somethin in the yard, but was not sure it was a chicken.  I asked if I needed to come get its body, she said she didnt think so.

If its my Fussy I want her back to bury her.  I still am crying every night hoping she is ok as I go to bed.  I really would like to know.  She said it was brown.

Gawd! This makes me mad...not you Jill...your neighbor!



Stoopid people that let their dogs wander and have NO accountability for their actions!

  What a waste of humanity!

Sorry you have such horrid neighbors Jill.

Anyone who lets their dogs wander and do damage to their neighbor's property is just horrible, IMO.



I am done venting...

Jill, it really sucks that your long distance neighbors are like this.
Would animal control be able to help?


It would be such a shame for a couple of dogs to go missing!
