In order of best the guiney are last, peacock second, and African geese are the best. Not just any breed of goose it has to be a white African. Naw the creosote won't hurt the dogs, in fact it will help keep down fleas and ticks, and dogs won't eat anything with creosote on it. We use creosote to keep penned hosses from cribbing and chewing the wood in the stalls. I've got some curr and sheep dogs here that can get pretty agressive with coyotes and wild dogs, they do real good against predators, but the drake will put all of them in their place if they bother any of the geese. That's right a goose does make alot of noise but he does'nt make any noise unless something is wrong or approaching me or the house from my experience, and they will walk ahead of you. They want to be a pet but it works out so that they are snake guards that walk ahead of you. This old drake here is about 10 years old and has saved me from moccasins and copperheads several times. When I'm on the ground working on a plow or bushhog or something he climbs up on my chest or legs and sits down and quitely squacks til I finish or get back up. They are very possessive and will get between you and another person and honk so loud you can't talk til you run him off.
