Perhaps a magnetically latched dog door that the dog could push open, but is too heavy for the chickens to move.

I reckon the magnetically latched doggie door is a great idea - next project coming up!

Matthias, welcome to the forum!  

Since the person was looking in 2012 I wonder what solution they found!
