[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 568573, member: 852"] My Labs tried killing kittens and chickens too when they were younger, as well as chasing horses and cows... it's just a dawg thing. I didn't go the extreme Bez suggests (I don't mind tanning their hide with a riding crop but I always feed/water my critters no matter how mad I am at them), but I did have a little discussion with them about the fact that cats and chickens are important to me and I want them around. :P My dogs haven't touched a chicken in at least 5 years or more, make wide detours to avoid anything that appears to look like chasing livestock, and they're extremely well mannered farm dogs. My 11 y/o Lab visits the neighbors on occasion and they don't mind her because she never bothers the animals. She's just traveling, that's all. If she ever shows a sign of human aggression I'd put her down in a heartbeat, but if she's only aggressive with animals... then IMO you need a lesson in being alpha dog, and "explain" to her that some things are no longer permitted.
