Chicken Dog

Can a dog 'chicken killer' be rehabilitated & How ?
Friend of mine on a farm has a Border Collie , a nice sweet gentel one thats started killing chikens chasing sheep live stock etc- I know herding is in their breed - but is there a way to rehabilitate a chicken killer ? my friend claims her other dog started killing chickents & her began after so its a learned behaviour .....
So I'm on the search for a way for her to keep the dog & to get it to stop killing chickens . chasing live stock - Or at least curb the dogs chasing live stock -
I caught my dog with a chicken and really read him the riot act.I am always quiet and calm with them in training, so he likely thought I had gone crazy....He never did it again. However, another dog was chasing and nipping at the livestock, and my son caught up with him, and picked him up and threw him on his back..knocked the wind out of him..I sure wouldn't have suggested that, and was upset that my grown son did it..but it worked..dog didn't do it anymore..
Yes, they can be rehabbed... I have bred hounds for many years, and many of the pups have taken a chicken..but they have always stopped when they learned that it was wrong..
Border collies are so smart, and they do like to please. I would suggest taking this dog's training very seriously, and getting his mind on learning..drilling in the basic obedience and even agility exercises, so that he is not bored, and takes more interest in being pleasing..Teaching something new every day is the best way of bonding and gaining respect... the more he learns, the more he will want to show off for you.
As all Border collie breeders know.. If you don't give them a job, they will create their own..and we are not likely to appreciate the job that they create for themselves..
