If you subscribe, as I do, to the concept of instinctive predatory behaviors in domestic canines, then you must ALWAYS assume any strange dog on your property will chase/injure/kill any poultry it comes across and/or dig under/break through any coop fencing if it is possible to do so.
I will...

Agree 100%. I fence my chickens in because of irresponsible dog owners. If I let them free-range and a dog kills even one, that's MY fault.
Notwithstanding, I still have ZERO tolerance for any livestock-killing animal.
