Leaving a dog around Chickens alone.

I never have any lgd.... all my dogs are either bull breed cross or whatever the local rescue hand to me to foster. They all live and stay with the rest of the animals here, chickens, ducks, pigeons, pigs, sheep, goat.... we never have any problem with them, pups will do their usual chase when first introduced but a few stern words and they leave them be and mostly ignore each other. They still hunt the usual varmints and uses the chickens squawk and scream as a cue to predators and will start their guard and hunt mode.... and they are fed raw too by the way.


The dog I described above that has really gone above and beyond what we expected of her is a bully breed. We got her as a pup from some folks who had rescued her mother, a pitbull, who had been dumped in an orchard after clearly failing as a fighting dog. What these good samaritan rescuers didn't know, was that their 5 Mos old bull mastiff pup would most certainly be capable of breeding her. So, surprise! Puppies!
 
for us no training was needed

we have a small mixed breed...about 10-15lb in size

it might be because she's too old or maybe of the breed ..

she will sniff the hens' butt once in a while or give chase for about 2-3 ft once in a while
