Many breeds of dog naturally take to herding. If you keep the dog with you as you do your daily chores it will soon learn that the movement of the chickens is not a signal to "play" Dogs naturally want to please the "Alpha". Repeated commands to "take them home" and praise or a treat when they do well will soon have the dogs happily herding hens.

Are there breeds of dogs that do not kill chickens?

Best to avoid terriers like Jack Russells and similar as it is their nature to catch and kill. Most dogs can be trained not to touch chickens if they are brought up that way from the start. A couple of the best breeds to train as they are intelligent are Labrador Retreivers and Border Collies. They may even be taught how to 'herd' the chickens like sheepdogs herd sheep. It will be more difficult if you have an older dog who is introduced to chickens for the first time, you may need professional help.

How do you train a chicken?

I Have 4 chickens and they are very friendly. i try to hold them every other day. If your chickens wont let u pick them up than just hang around there cage allot till they get used to you. With in a week your chickens will most likely be ready for you to pet them. They wont be very happy if you try and pick them up when they aren't ready. All chickens are different except one thing..... they will forgive you. Once your chicken trusts you than all you do is train them with food. They love food and will do almost any thing for it.
