This is a cute story I saw:
Chicken Befriends Pups
Ten golden retriever puppies were born on Easter Sunday.
Malinda and Shannon Scott's dog, Shannon, gave birth to the pups in a spacious, blanket-lined wooden box on the family's covered deck.
Last Friday, the Scotts were floored when they found one of their pet chickens in the box with dog and her puppies.
At first they tried to shoo the chicken away, but they all seemed to be getting along just fine, so the Scotts decided to leave them alone.
"We were totally surprised and concerned when we first looked up and saw there was a chicken in that box with the puppies. We kept shooing her out and she'd come right back ... it was difficult to get her to stay out," Malinda Scott said.
