(just s...Gee, LouMac, thanks for pointing that out. (just saw your apology... Hmmm)<br /><br />The thing with Floyd is that he's just the sweetest, gentlest dog. He'd rather a pat than a feed, he loves to play. He's a tearaway. <br /><br />He's got a lot of the good points of all the dogs I've had, and none of the bad... except he's TOO SMART.<br /><br />I love him to bits, and because he loves people so much (and he's a bit of a jumper with me), I'm afraid that if he gets off and gets out he might hurt someone, or someone might get a fright, and he'll be hurt. He's never been hit - severe words, yes, growling etc, but he's fearless! (Meg is timid.)<br /><br />Like 48, Katie and Bundy, Floyd will only eat when he's hungry - unless it's a treat. Meg is a guts. Like 48, Katie and Bundy, Floyd will crap way down the yard, and if he's tied up, he will only crap in the same place. Meg shits anywhere.kaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05819693069445947851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6723937561506139096.post-23546993595444075312010-03-22T20:46:22.708+10:002010-03-22T20:46:22.708+10:00"Nice to have a pet you don't have to fee..."Nice to have a pet you don't have to feel inferior to"<br /><br />I meant me, not literally YOU!<br />Sorry<br />LouMacAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6723937561506139096.post-35758339893892500502010-03-22T20:43:53.754+10:002010-03-22T20:43:53.754+10:00looks like you have your work cut out there kae.

The harness was front legs through and then hooked together at the back of the shoulders, behind the neck. I used it on all the other dogs (same style), and they'd never got out of it. He pulls on a lead so I wanted to make it better for him by using the harness. Big mistake.<br />Anyhoo, the little blighter will not wear a halti - know anyone who wants to buy a pretty purple halti - only worn... well, he kept getting it off, even the dogtrainer lady gave up after we both rolled around on the ground trying to get it on him...<br /><br />And...<br />The side gate is over four feet, it's up hill and the little bugger just runs up there and leaps up, hooking his front legs over the top, walks his back legs up the mesh in the gate (it's a big farm gate). I've stopped him twice. I don't want to take that chance, I'm not game to let him off if I'm not out there with him, and even then he used to make a b-line for any dogs, people he saw or voices he heard.<br /><br />Now, what was I talking about... Oh yes.<br /><br />I'm not sure whether I can let him off even if I'm around. He was coming to me when I filled the mower up and it wouldn't start, I called him and he came, but Meg stopped him.<br /><br />That's their game. I throw the ball, she runs to fetch so I can throw it again and Floyd runs interference. Then, when I call Floyd after the game is over, or before it begins, Meg will stop him from coming to me!kaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05819693069445947851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6723937561506139096.post-18927245387593525002010-03-22T19:36:06.359+10:002010-03-22T19:36:06.359+10:00in one go, he leapt up onto his dog box
kae, I ha...in one go, he leapt up onto his dog box<br /><br />kae, I have seen dogs clearing six foot high paling fences with no trouble at all.<br />And from the paling side too, as long as the can get a purchase on the top with their paws, they pull themselves over.<br />Might be a bit different with chain wire, they don't like the wobble if they can't clear it clean.<br /><br />Have you tried a harness type thingo for his rope, instead of the collar?<br /><br />LouMacAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6723937561506139096.post-14919409374207307442010-03-22T18:52:05.714+10:002010-03-22T18:52:05.714+10:00Don't encourage him, Carpe!Don't encourage him, Carpe!kaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05819693069445947851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6723937561506139096.post-63410439394715377522010-03-22T18:49:34.943+10:002010-03-22T18:49:34.943+10:00Way to go Floyd the wonder dog. :)Way to go Floyd the wonder dog. :)Carpe Jugulumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04854090457226690086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6723937561506139096.post-13691932846633404262010-03-22T14:32:48.545+10:002010-03-22T14:32:48.545+10:00Yes, Lou
