We live out in the country too and is to big to fence. I was real nervous about this in the beginning - but both my hubby and daughter insisted on letting Bailey go potty with no leash. Bailey soon learned the property lines (due to calling 'come' whenever she got close). We have two ponds and walk the property without a leash every day for exercise.

I know yorkies are known to be stubborn - but Bailey is not. She comes when called and gets praised and treated every time. Because of that, she lives a leash-free life - except when we're at the park. She is ALWAYS watched when we're outside. If we can't watch her then she stays inside.

All that said - I do worry about the one time she might chase something into the street - I worry alot. But the freedom of leash-free is wonderful.
