TRAIN DOGS AROUND CHICKENS, CATS, & SMALL PETS | Start At ANY age! | How We Trained Our Rescue Dogs

Here is how I trained our dogs (and a few others) to be safe around chickens. Intro is a little harsh but want to make sure you know this is a more in-depth video, not a "quick-fix" solution. A few common MYTHS that I can't believe are still circulated, like "a dog can't be trained once it has killed a chicken" or "dogs must be started around chickens as a puppy" are downright silly to those of us who know better. Don't get caught up in other people's excuses -- do as much research on science-backed dog behavior as possible to pursue the dream dog and relationship you really desire. It's totally possible, and you can do it! (More resources below)
