They really put you through the ringer!
Although I've only had my chickens for a little over a year, they have managed to sabotage most of my time, a good chunk of income, and still they expect more. So I understand!
My dog eventually lost most of her initial interest, and only tries to "help" with the chickens occasionally, although she doesn't have ugly motives (just wants a sniff, not a chicken dinner).
Once my chickens realized they are safe in their run, they pretty much ignored my dog. That in turn made the dog not focus so much on them (and their fear). Hope your flock settles in soon!
