  1. Thanks for your replies, we have spent close to $10000 building the house yard fence which is post and rail chicken wire was secure until he started digging under it. Alpha bet I did state there was house fence and obviously I have tried making it secure as possible! But was actually after constructive ideas that I may not have already thought of!! And have installed the collar electric wire which then didn't work. The neighbours dogs wander the neighbourhood freely including our place but have a mate and are not puppies therefore don't. Really cause as much problem so the neighbours would only be setting up a future of disharmonious neighbours if they were to call te ranger I have thought of the electric tape and will look into it but was more reluctant to go down that path as the house yard fence is also for the children and yes they will learn from it to but it can be dangerous to young children unlikely but possible hence my looking for any advice I hadn't though that of yet. He does also have a paddle pool and sand pit. The problem became worse when my older dog passed suddenly he had no mate. Sheena perhaps this lower electric fence would work on the outside of the fence he would still get a shock trying to go under but kids wouldn't accidentally touch it from inside the (not so) secure
  2. I have a 15 month old intact male golden retriever. We live in acreage and the house yard has fenced probably 1-2 acres. For months now he escapes to the neighbours they have dogs and are often out and about feeding stock etc also their dams are not dry so I understand the lure. He digs under our house yard fence we are home most i for the time and I walk him 6kms a few days a week as well as playing in the yard. We are no worries unable to take him out and about to the dam or chopping wood in our paddocks as he will go next door as soon as you turn- once he is under the fence ears are back and he runs when you call him back. This morning he went while said neighbours were on our verandah with us! With all but one of their dogs. So that is first problem we plan to dig and add a skirt to fence. Second problem when neighbours went home he apparently rushed up and aggressively attacked their chihuahua actually puncturing him. I have never seen him be aggressive to chooks, children dogs large or small which often visit. I don't know why this would have happened unprovoked I'm feeling concerned . We have stock and small children
