Laura, our pyrs were always after anything flying too. Our male killed any thing that got in the pen with "his" goats that wasn't "allowed". He loved people though but our female only trusted certain people in with the goats. They made the perfect team.
That's crazy about your state allowing dogs help hunt deer. They don't need them in my opinion.
My pet pyr is cool with other dogs though she is territorial. It's the aussie and cairn terrier who make the most noise about stray dogs and squirrels. The lgd pyr though has a reputation. My dad leases out his fields to a local farmer. He warned him not to bring along his dogs while on the property. The farmer thought my dad was kidding. My lgd jumped the fence and pulled his german shepherd off the back of the truck. He got his dog after a bit, put her in the cab, and went to my dads house to apologize. I was worried he'd be mad, he wasn't, he was embarrassed. Morgan (the lgd) takes her job seriously. I wish I could bring her in town, but her fence jumping capabilities would get both of us in trouble. She is however good with chickens.
