Love your new avatar! I have 3 inside and 3 outdoors! We didn't train our dog. We got him as a puppy 8 years ago and we got chickens when he was 4 or 5 years old and he only chased one chicken once, I scolded him and he has never done it again
He actually protects them now! My other dog actually used to kill my neighbors chickens :l When we go our chickens he ran up to a mean hen and she gave him a look and he stopped killing chickens. Our dogs are fast learners I guess! Or they know not to take a risk!
