I need one to keep the deer out of my vineyard. He must be ready, willing and able to run deer to death.
He will live outdoors May to October in a comfortable doghouse. In the other months he will live indoors. He will be well paid in kibbles and have the best of vet and other human care.
No Pit Bulls need apply.
Suggestions?

These work well and are a favorite for many for just that purpose (chasing deer away). Deer/Bear Guard Dog

It's been my good luck to have worked with MANY fine working breeds over the years, in their natural working environments.
I've SHOT an awful lot of stock and wildlife chasing dogs.
Some of you fine folk here have met my dog(s), and know they're pretty squared away company.
I'm having a bit of difficulty understanding how, if one can't keep deer OUT, he intends to keep this gunpowder dog IN ?

You cannot chase deer with dogs in Oregon but there are a lot of dogs that will keep deer out of a yard. That said a dog keeping deer out of a vineyard would be tough duty. That would be a lot of space to cover and I kind of doubt a dog would consider that much space as his home territory. Then there may be the problem with fencing enough to keep the dog in. A dog free running deer is a legal shot in Oregon.
I am thinking you are barking up the wrong tree so to speak and need to look at other ways to protect the vineyard.

1. You've been told. I grew up in Oregon and shooting dogs running deer and stock. The law was on my side EVERY time.
2. Stop being a cheep skate. You seriously want to keep wildlife out high fence it.
3. Troll much?

I'd recommend that he hire SBH, keep him in pills, cheap wine, and toilet paper. Let him tent around the perimeter.

Seriously, I have heard of Border Collies being trained for similar duty. These duties being flocks of birds on airports and geese on golf courses.
What happens here when the deer gets used to the dog I dunno.

Be careful what you wish for.
Robins were eating many of my strawberries.
So I got a dog to chase the robins away.
What I ended up with was a Lab who eats my strawberries.
I have the pictures......
The only true cost of having a dog is its death.
