Pretty interesting stories. Your dog, later, didn't attack Rudy?

Sort:  

No, we taught them Rudy is our buddy. When I fed Rudy I let the dogs sniff him and I would say he is a baby, he is our buddy, and now the dogs pay him no attention and he does not run and hide when they come to his cage.

Years ago when we got baby chickens we brought the dogs around them and told them they were our buddies and let the chicks grow up with the dogs being around. The dogs left them alone when they were bigger and we let them roam the yard. The chickens would chase the dogs, a rottweiler, and a dachshund, then the dogs would chase them, it was a game they played. The dogs could have grabbed them at any time but never did.
