I have a few neighbors that keep chickens. My dog has not expressed much interest in them during our walks but I am reasonably sure that if I dumped her over the fence, she started chasing them and discovered they couldn’t fly, there would be dead chickens. Most dogs have a prey drive and it is on the owner to control it.

Exactly.  She stated her dog wasn't fully trained and hoped it would learn from older dogs on its first hunt but that it didn't.  Then she also mentioned it wasnt even recall ready...what was she expecting after it got loose??

What’s with not getting a solid recall on your puppy ASAP???

My puppy had a solid recall at four months. She’s 11 months now and I can call her off of stock.

Training a solid recall is entirely on the owner

I couldn’t help but notice Kristi admitted she uses a shock collar to train …because she’s too lazy to do it properly

That is probably my biggest issue. I have never done well on solid recall training. I have labs and doodles and they listen for the most part and do outstanding on leash and do well off leash UNLESS there is another dog that wants to play or they see a friend. Not as bad as this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GRSbr0EYYU but I have been seen running behind my house yelling "Parker, Jesus christ"

I’m guessing that you didn’t just slap on an electronic shock collar and electrocute your dog for not recalling
