I don't have chickens yet! We are getting them next spring once our coop is built. Cherokee was a working military dog so she is pretty intense and lots of prey drive. I am a behavior specialist and already trained her to accept our cats (they are dog savvy and do not run) and she totally respects them--they even slap her on the nose if she heads for their dinner bowl. We also have a very small parrot (parrotlet) she has gotten used to but if he flies around a lot (he has a huge flight cage) she will bark at him. She has lived with us 2 years now so I am hoping
with my guidance she'll see them as her flock and not dinner.
