From the west. Plenty of chicken raising. Trench the fencing deep. There are several breeds of dogs that have long histories of protecting chickens. The Maremma if most used in Australia. These are not dogs for indoor or urban pets. These Maremma's were surrendered and a smart chicken farmer adopted them. Adopting rescue dogs was not only good welfare for the animal, Mr Carmody said dogs over four years old are also easier to train. "We've got four Maremma sheep dogs; we have two pairs working in 30-acre paddocks each." Maremma sheep dogs are often used on free and open-range egg farms to guard the chickens. A Victorian egg farmer who has up to 4,000 birds has adopted rescue dogs to work on the property "We like the rescues because they are mature, we don't have to deal with the puppy stage - they're a bit useless at protecting the chickens under two years old." The Anatolian Shepard, the Great Pyrenees, the Kuvasz, are a few of the dogs that are used successfully for livestock, including chicken protection.
