I am terrified that he is going to get hit by a car, or lost, or taken. We are keeping him on a lead now when he goes out to go potty, but he is upset that he can't play with the other dogs. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to yorkie proof a chain link fence. Thanks so much for your help.
Well, I always go out with mine, too. Just not for that reason. You could purchase a metal barrier that could be buried in the ground. You could drill holes thru it every so far apart and use some means to attach it to your fence. If it was buried about a foot underground, I don't think he'd be digging his way out of that.
