Thread: Make your pet enclosures dog proof

Cheeky little bugger

For the want of one lousy nail...

The Tibetan Mountain climbing Dog.

Had a Silky Terrier that used to do that. Now there's a movie so others can believe us!

She met her demise when at a boarding kennel, she climbed up the gate and through the square hand opening for the barrel bolt. The kennel owner saw it happen and watched her bolt straight under the wheels of a car!

She could climb our six foot timber fence too!

Maybe she's reincarnated as a Beagle.

Cheers,

I wanna see it get back in!

I love how the other dogs are only midly interested in what's going on, until he's out then they're like '?'

I had a wired haired foxy that could get out of some pretty tight spots... She once got our other dog (medium sized labradoodle) to dig a hole near the fence - she then used the larger hole to tunnel out under the fence. We came home from work with 6 or 7 answering machine messages saying that they'd found our dog.. it would then escape again and move a bit further down the road. I ended up burying 300mm worth of gal mesh vertically below the fence to keep the blighter in...

cheers,

Sister and BIL got a bitza pup as a first child. It was an awesome small dog and could drag me sand skiing along the beach when on a lead. It could also climb trees, poles and ladders at will. Unfortunately she was poisoned 3 days after having her first litter.

I had one of the pups who lived to be 18 yo, and lived in the bush till he was 12. He used to go to work with dad (builder), and climb ladders etc like his mum. Take the ladder away, if you didn't want to walk on 2nd story joists with the dog at your feet, and he would shin up the poles/studs etc. Silly bugger created a lot of fun and an occasional problem on site. Also used to play with wombat mother and youngsters, wallabies and roos quite often.

Was an active escapologist once he came to live in the burbs, wasn't happy being restricted to a couple of acres. Would go for a walk with keeper, head for a tree or something, and then keep going. Bought him home from 5 miles away quite a few times.
