You'd have to keep the dogs seperate, don't think they'll eventually
ignore a tortoise, they'll eventually kill him. Believe me it
happens all the time on the tortoise forum, people can't seem
to understand that dogs/cats have no reason NOT to do it just
because they're your pets. As often as it happens, people still
do it assuming it's always "someone elses dog that would do that,
not mine".
Our tortoise habitat is inside a 6 ft. privacy fence, your dogs
could have run of the yard as long as the tort was fenced off
from them and had dog/digging proof fencing around that. Dogs have
been known to dig into a tortoise pen and kill it. This is one
reason my fence is electric (and I don't even have any dogs).
