[Market-farming] Deer prevention

I have two farmcollies. They keep out deer by charging but aren't allowed to chase. They also hunt mice, moles, voles, rabbits and squirrels. They'll tree raccoons. They killed one last summer but I'd rather they not touch them.  They keep hawks, owls and vultures off the poultry and prevent airplanes from landing in the driveway on slow days. I don't think I'll ever break one of them of chasing planes.  We no longer have coyote problems and bobcats pass through but seldom come back. The dogs make my job a lot easier.

Anyone have any luck with using 'guard dogs' to keep deer away? I have been thinking about training a dog to basically work at night to keep them at bay.
