New to backyard suburban chickens

Welcome :welcome Nice to have you here! My two dogs are rescues and came to me as adults. The chickens were already fully grown. For the first year they met with Luke on leash and chooks in run, then Luke on leash and chooks running loose in the backyard. He can be out with them now but I am usually with him, he doesn’t like to stay in the yard very long unless I’m out there. My other dog can’t be trusted but has learned not to ‘touch’ the run. Some training and lots of observation (and treats) got us there
Thank you I am probably going to have to really condition the dachshund with them I just know he will be the one to bark and whine at the run. That is more or less what I need to correct I dont think I will trust any of them except the two older dogs with the bird. I think my oldest dog may even be protective over them thats just his nature.
 
This is the silkie chick we are getting next weekend. Just wanted to share the pic :)
