So, as you can see, I haven't posted in a long time. Reason being is that Winston still continues to find ways out of the yard. I started by buying every single tent stake that Wal-Mart had (somewhere in the area of 60) and pounded them into the ground along the fence line, securing the loose spots from movement. Unfortunately, the ground is rather moist here, and it doesn't

take much force to move the stakes. So, I kicked it up a notch. I bought 37 bags of concrete and poured a footer, using 35 bags, around the base of the fence. I let it set up for one day, then figured I would let him have a go at it. Well, he did, and he found one area in which the fence was raised up and didn't meet the footer. So, now I have poured 36 bags of concrete. I then left him on his chain while I was in New Mexico for the week. I got back last night, and figured that since I was back, the neighbors wouldn't have to worry about tracking him down. I let him off his chain and went to bed. This morning, when I went to feed him, he wasn't there. I went outside and heard him barking. Somehow, he wound up in the neighbors back yard, which has a wooden privacy fence. I knocked on their door, and told them he was back there. They had no idea. Somehow, he managed to get out of my yard and stuck in theirs. I wish I could tell you how he did this. So, tonight I get to make another attempt and keeping him in the yard.

Have you considered he might be using ninja rope?

Scanning the title of this post, and then the picture, I've come to the conclusion that you've filled your misbehaving dog with concrete.

I'm sick of looking at the same bag of cement everyday I check for updates.
