I just went through this with the humane society. Basically the neighbors dogs killed my chicken and tried to get to my others. They had us take pictures of the bird as it was dieing in our arms, we asked them what recourse we had, they said they could do a warning, or cite them and we could get restitution for the bird. The next time the dogs would be impounded. Cripes I don't want money, just some peace from this as it has been ongoing for over a year that we have been talking nice with the neighbor, knowing inevitably this would happen.
I asked about shooting the dogs, but hey, your not supposed to do that here.
We have a fence that the dogs keep digging under to get in. Thankfully we were home this time when it happened and were able to scare the dogs off before they killed more. Next time I will take a bat to them, then call the humane society to come pick them up.
At least report it, so it is documented, that is the first step.
