Loose dogs, having fun
Our nearby neighbors were given a young dog for xmas. They let it out by
opening the door and letting it wander unsupervised. No fence. Our dogs, of course, went kinda nuts when the new dog arrived. It's a smallish terrier type, very cute. He crosses the property line and stands outside our fence, and our dogs bark at it (except the Chow mix, who screams and wails). It was probably inevitable that ours would escape with this temptation on the other side. Rex, the very athletic brown dog, jumps the gate, which is the low spot in the fence, but still over 4 ft. He runs next door and they play and play. This morning, our fat-ish brown dog and the Chow mix got out, probably found a spot to slip under the fence. It was a raiding party. The dog next door was not out, but they came back with a toy. lol flick 100785 |

Sounds like the dogs had a ball though! I've talked to them in the past about this, to no avail. There are coyotes here, and they'd see a 15-lb dog as a snack. A fence might not stop a coyote, but it would keep the dog closer to the house and might lessen the risk. Plus keep him out of the road. Later this a.m., they said they haven't seen him since yesterday afternoon. I last saw him in their yard yesterday morning, and our dogs hadn't gotten out for a couple days (again) until this a.m. I've been tapping tent stakes into the ground all around the yard, to hold the fence down. Hopefully won't need to re-do the hot wire (which will require a lot of weed clearing by hand). If they get out, they come when called, thank goodness. flick 100785 |
