My "security" for my flock

[Heat]

After loosing one of my ladies to a hawk I decided to leave my Malamute/Heeler/Coyote mix outside with them...







None of them seem to mind him hanging out with them and he doesn't chase/attack them... actually I have gotten really lucky and none of my dogs attack my flock (I have 5 dogs). And all of the dogs being out at random times during the day/night seem to have scared off any other predators we had running around.

Thanks, he is awesome

Last night he actually refused to come inside. My mama hen who just hatched out 8 chicks decided the coop wasn't good enough so she made a nest just outside the coop. Nanuq sat guard all night to make sure nothing got her or the chicks.

I even tried to get him to come inside (before I knew why he wasn't budging).
