    Will my dogs be a problem for a chicken?

    My hens attack my dog when he gets excitable I'm lucky as he has only nipped one once and she really pecked him into submission. he has now learned to walk among them very calmly or he will be chased and pecked. Needless to say though if my dogs personality were different I'm sure some of my...
