For starters nobody uses an electric fence for chickens. You have them for cattle because they’re so big building a fence sturdy enough they can’t just push over is expensive.

Livestock guard dogs are expensive, especially trained ones.

    Nope, sure aren’t. Unless you want to buy a fully-trained dog, then sure.

    If you plan to raise chickens, but also plan to buy a 5k dog, you probably aren’t mentally prepared for raising livestock.
