 Leash during day?
Dutch is quite a jumper. I finally figured out that he's escaping the gated kitchen by jumping the 5 foot gate! I saw him do it, it's incredible. Anyway he is not sufficiently trained to have run of house, so I have to do something.
Rather than leaving him in the crate all day and risking a housetraining accident in there, I am wondering if anyone has had success using a leash to confine by day? It would give him enough slack to get into the crate if he wants to sleep, get to the bathroom, and move around enough to play with his toys, but not enough that he can get to a dangerous part of the house.
Does anyone have experience with this? Are there safety issues to concern myself with regarding leaving him attached to the fridge handle during the day? Any thoughts are helpful. |
