You have to train the dogs to respect the ducks.
Yes the dogs could kill the ducks, and no the ducks will not be able to
out run the dogs, they can not fly, just flutter a bit off the ground,
and they are sensitive so would stress if you allow the dogs to bother them.

Hi All;
I am wondering about these Indian Runner Ducks. I have three small
Cairn Terriers, and they are the most territorial little buggers you
have ever seen. If any thing runs, they are off after it. Do you
think they might chase and catch the ducks, or could the ducks fend
for themselves. I am hoping the name might mean they could avoid the
dogs.
Thanks Jimmie

How are the Guineas on eating vegetables and plants, and scratching up
mulches? Do you protect them at night from varmints? Do they lay
eggs you can eat?

It didn't get rid of them. However, 7 Guineas adopted us 3 years ago
and our ant, flea, tick problems are almost non existent now. We are
so impressed with them that we hatched 60 more last Fall/Winter. We
NEVER want to be without them./*
