For me dogs and chickens go together like oil and water. my moms golden killed 3 of bcm at 3 months old and a BO (that reminds me i never got money for replacements). and this week my moms renter on the back property got a hold of my EE rooster under the run fence because the hot fence was off to mow and she got his rump and pulled out every tail feather in one mouth full. he got away with his life because our other rooster came over and was clawing and pecking at her face. i would have a area for dogs and a area for chickens with hot wire at the base thats ALWAYS on.
