Oh what a night…

I am so glad you found him and he is OK I know if my chow got lost I would probably have a heart attack

I think we will be getting a lock this weekend. An underground system wouldn’t work super awesome for Shibas I’m told – I guess they are likely to panic and run OUT of the underground fence, then be too scared to come back in. In any case, he stays in the yard unless the gate is open, so a lock should solve the problem. 😀

Feeling much better tonight… no drama and puppy is curled up at my feet gnawing on a toy.

Yeah, I can see a Shiba taking off no matter what shock or sound tries to deter them from leaving the yard anyway if there is a small critter in their territory; the hunting drive is too strong to be shut down by a shock. And Shibas are waaayyyy too cat like to take to a negative reinforcement system anyway.

That’s true. Their prey drive is crazy. Not an off leash/free range dog at all.

At least our guy can usually be bribed to ignore things with cheese. Even small animals haven’t beaten that out so far… 🙂
