Check with the sheriff's office or game warden. Many years ago a group of dogs (2 or 3) chased some of my uncle's horses at his stables. The local game warden and the sheriff's office (Albemarle County, Virginia) told him that sincethe dogs were threatening livestock that he had a legal right to shoot them and if he did not want to they would do it for him. I don't know but chickens may be considered as livestock. If so you may be legally able to shoot the dog. Either way it puts the local law enforcement on notice that there may be a dangerous "pet" in your area.
