i have a great pyr for guarding the chickens and household/farm, as well as a 
catahoula mix, and they also do a great job keeping deer (and coyotes, foxes, 
etc.) away. If your garden is near the house where the dogs live, i think 
they would do much better than a fence. my garden is too far away for the 
dogs to guard full-time, but there are a lot of deer in the area and i 
haven't found tracks to indicate they've been in my garden yet.
