Well I left him out side (The garden has no holes in the trees, ect) he was fine at first and then I saw him in an attack position, He then pounced on something in the long grass, I could not see it but when I took a closer look I saw my neighbours cat dead with bites to the neck if you look closely, The cat is massive and I am surprised he managed to kill it, My other neighbour has a smaller but older cat and I am worried that he might go for that, I am not going to let my dog out side in the garden unless I am there for now on, Do you think I am doing the right thing not letting him out side for long periods of time, Since it is his hunting instincts.

He has never killed anything before and he use to live with a cat too.

I am just worried when I think everything is fine again he will kill again, Since he lived peacefully with a cat before.

Could a mod move this thread to General discussion, I never realized I was in this section. sorry.
