What height are your fences? Which do you think I should choose? I would
also like to know of dogs who go over 5 foot fences. Sort of. Five is as
high as the HOA will allow.

It is not my intention to leave them out there alone, I would either be
out with them or in the den (which looks out on the backyard).


I think the question isn't whether or not your dogs have the physical
capability to jump the fence, but whether they would be likely to want
to do so.

I have 4-foot fences and have never had anything taller. Any and all
dogs I've ever owned could have jumped that fence if they wanted, but
they have no real desire to. The fence is merely the physical barrier of
their space. They will put their front feet on the top and hop up and
down barking, but they have no interest in jumping it. YMMV.
