Okay, maybe I am missing something. I admit I didn't find it all that hilarious when you said you wanted to drop him off at the humane society.
I don't really understand how someone who has trained dogs before - and has a beagle - can make statements like, "he only does tricks for food", or "he just stares at me when I try to teach him speak", or "he doesn't come back to us when called." Again, I can only guess that the other dogs you've worked with were both brilliant and angelic.
Please also consider that this dog could be attacked by a larger animal while outside, even if successfully confined by an invisible fence. |
