    How to train LGDs?

    Update, Jack russell is doing amazing with the chickens, she doesn't mind them though doesn't leave them much and stays close, which is what we want though we'd never leave her unsupervised. Though... Her grandson isn't doing good in the slightest. He's too hyped, it'll take a while

    How to train LGDs?

    I'm currently reading about LGDs, but these articles never mention how to train them. How do I train a dog to kill a fox? Protect smaller livestock from aviary predators? Minks?
