Best kinds of dogs if you want chickens too?

[pslamont]

My Beagle/Corie mix is oblivious to the chickens. Part of that is that he was always a well trained dog, and part is that he is like a hundred years old. We tried many varieties to add to our ranch family with little success. Once a dog is a year or so old, it is TOUGH to teach about the chickens. We are not tryig with a lab mix we got as a 6 week old puppy. She is smart but not well behaved. Chalk that up to the absent trainer (me). I do believe that starting with a smart puppy... young puppy... and doing formal training makes all the difference.

Good Luck.
