Sunny's fence modifications
I put up my 6 foot chain link fence around my back
yard way back in 1993 and Sunny i
s the first and
ONLY dog to go over it.  She did it with me standing
right there almost next to her.  Jumped up, hooked
her feet o
ver the top rail & valuted over.  I went up
to Lowes & bought the brackets & plastic mesh &
put it up with extra long plastic zip ties.  It was
intended to be a temporary fix until I could have the
fence people out to do something better, but it
seems to be working - she's not gotten out since the
modifications were installed in August 2010.
Sunny also jumped the fence numerous times while she lived with
David & Jennifer.  They ended up stringing TWO strands of hot wire
over the top of their 5 foot fence to try to keep her in.  I didn't want to
be concerned with electricity or with batteries that might go dead
which is why I opted for a more low-tech containment system.
