Welcome to BYC. I am in absolute agreement with other posters saying you need to figure out what killed your original flock before buying more. If it was disease, your new flock could be infected by being in the same coop unless it is thoroughly sanitized. If it was from predators, you need to make your coop and run predator proof. Sorry to be such a downer, but a little work now could save you a whole lot of heartache later. Best of luck.
Here is where to post if you believe the chickens died from disease: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures.10/
If you list any symptoms you can remember, folks in there may be able to help with a diagnosis.
I agree, I guess I should have said my dogs killed my chickens, it is something I will fix before getting chicks. They broke into the chicken coop and while I haven't fixed it yet, I plan on fixing it so they can't reach the door anymore.
