The Dog and the Chickens

We went down the hill of our neighbors yard yesterday to visit their 6 chickens that are growing quite rapidly.  Ben was in our yard yelping his head off (he hates to be left out) and wouldn't you know not 3 minutes later he came bounding down their hill and almost leaped 6 feet in the air at the sight of these chickens.  They must be there purely for his enjoyment.  Thankfully they were well secured within a fence but that didn't seem to deter his desire.  We are sure he purely wants to tackle them and maybe gum their heads a bit but he would not eat them - he only wants to play.......    How will this story end.  We hope happily.........
