My first guess was a Jack Russell terrier. Then, I found an ad just posted in our local on-line newspaper classifieds for a free Australian Shepherd. I know the Australian dog is a herd dog but, are they protective over the flock? Will their instincts work for protecting poultry?
If they are protective, will they actually KILL the predator? How big do they get 20-30-40 pounds?
I would like a smallish dog. Do you guys have any other suggestions for a breed?
