    dog breeds that will not chase chickens

    We have an old corgi that ignores the chickens. not sure I would trust a young one. My daughter has 2 labs. One is an idiot that hasn't noticed the chickens yet. The other wanted to get the chickens but I have "trained " her to leave them alone.......so far.
