Rat Terrier Chicken Herding

Post by Ginger »

I read the other day that Rat Terriers were used to herd chickens :?: :?: For some reason, the visual I put on that just cracked me up. I could just see Little Man and Prissy (my Rat Terriers) herding chickens.... for that matter how do you herd a chicken :lol: :lol: :lol: I think there would be a lot of feather flying, and very little herding :lol: :lol:

Wish I had a herd of chickens to try it out on :lol: :lol: :lol:

My sister use to have a dog that hearded chickens. It was pretty funny to watch.

How on earth would you expect a "hunt down and kill the h*** out of everything" breed to turn into a collie?? I can't see it. What next, Greyhounds herding rabbits? :lol: I guess we'll have to hunt down a youtube about it to believe it. :)

Let us know if you do find a video. That is something I'd like to watch. :lol:
