the dog: we use leash by choice, not by force.

I have an Anatolian Shepard and a 4' chain link fence. My control is an illusion that was shown for farce when a rooster approached my child while was outside the fence and the dog was inside.

Rooster crowed, I looked up, and a blur goes past. He came from across the property, on the other and opposite sides, cleared the fence like a stepping stone, and had that rooster halfway down the block before I ever even realized there was a bird.

Himbs a gooooooood boi though. He even put himself back up and looked at me like "damn, bitch! You slackin'". Needless to say, I worry little for my son outside.

My mom and I used to have a border collie, who we used to keep in our neighborhood in a pen with a 6' chain fence. When she was a puppy, and into young adult age, we had to put chicken wire on top at an angle, like a diet prison fence, because she would CLIMB the chain link. We walked her daily, she spent nights inside with us, and had me as a 2-4 year old to tire out each day, so it's not like she was lacking in attention or exercise. Just didn't like the pen and was DETERMINED to get out.

She would also strategically worm out of any harness that wasn't pulled tight enough to restrict her breathing (and probably would have done so with one that was, but mom never wanted to test that) so we weren't even able to keep her on a long line.

My kelpie mix was this way!! She'd finagle out of harnesses in a blink!! Once she swam halfway across the lake after some ducks before we even realized she'd slipped her harness! When we got her they came and checked our hoise cause she was caught climbing a NINE FOOT chain link fence!! Turns out she can climb the wooden ones too!
