Well, minimum 6 dogs is a pack. A pack of the neighbors dogs barking at people in your driveway might turn into a pack of dogs attacking someone in your driveway. Anybody who'd quote the Texas laws on how their dogs have a right to run free likely understands that the frame of mind in Texas would permit you to shoot their darn dogs with something much greater than a BB gun if they come on your property and attack you and yours. Boo, what do you have against poor old chickens? Those dogs won't "chase" them, they'll have them for lunch. And the feud continues.
Once the dogs have the flock for lunch, then the dogs will have to go. Livestock always trumps dogs.

Chickens are less expensive than goats and a donkey, in terms of acquisition and food stuffs. Otherwise, I'd suggest goats and a donkey, and watch the donkey stomp a dog or two.
