Please please help!

I just moved in with my friend who has bunnies, and my dog who is not pray drive at all, is addicted to them. She sits by their cage crying all day, and will not listen to anyone. She will not come for a treat, and she ignores me if I yell at her. When I pull her away with a collar, she just refuses. The only way she will leave them is if we chase her with the vacuum. I tried taking the bunnies out. She chased it and barked at it, and licked and chewed on its ears. That she started chasing it and scaring it so I put it back. Is my dog getting pray driven? Should I be worried? How can I train her to leave them alone if she does not come for treats? Please help!

Step-by-step explanation:

ok your problem is not a problem at all you see your dog has imprinted on the bunnies due to the fact that the dog has not seen another animal living in its home therefore it has either imprinted on the bunnies or is trying to protect his territory against them, however the fact that you said it lies by the bunnies cage is most likely imprinted on them and means no harm see dogs will lay by an another dogs cage if the dog inside the cage is locked in there its perfect normal for this to happen because dogs are like people they get lonely to the dog is probably trying to give the bunnies some company so they are not lonely

hope this helps
