Then a couple of times a week I would take that out and run it around a tree and my porch making a little temporary fence and let my little girl run for a bit.
Another thing we did was use an overhead dog trolley. You can connect a high overhead line between 2 trees or buildings like a clothes line. Then hook the dog leash to a little wheel and he is free to run in a fairly large area up and down the line and out a few feet either way.
I am including the link for one of those. We used that until we got 2 dogs and finally got our fence.
Hope this helps. Overhead Dog trolley line Exerciser |
I might do this; I am still living at home with mom, stepdad and sister, so he wouldn't let me do anything permanent, but if I could get some chicken wire that was easy to take on/off, that might work!
