I'm glad you're got it taken care of.
I had a Banty rooster that was constantly going after me. He'd start a run at me from 20 feet away.
At the time my dog, Shasta, a Border Collie/ Aussie mix was a year old, she gets along fine with my free ranging chickens.
I went over to the wood shed for something and I saw my rooster with his head stuck between split stacked wood. I thought I had a dead rooster but when I touched him, he was warm and alive.
I looked around and about ten feet away my dog was laying down staring intently at the back end of my rooster.
The look on her face was a "I dare you to mess with me again".
The rooster changed a bit after that, he want after me infrequently, but gave my dog a wide berth.
