We were planning on doing that in the new house... the one we're in isn't 100% secure thanks to the back neighbors dog.. and luckily sasha is trained and is really obsessive about being near my mom or we'd have to be even stricter with her too. The new house has a back porch with wood rails. I was thinking of tying a tie out to that post and only letting her there when I am in the yard with her. I don't trust people I don't know- and I heard of dogs being snatched from their yards by birds of prey, other predatory animals, or people... She could get in trouble if I am not there to watch her, plus she doesnt like being alone oddly(for a stray).

My yard is to small for a large bird to be able to get back out if they swooped in. I have locks on our gates to just encase either the 8 year old who likes to come over to say hi tries to let them out or to keep people out but I live in an area that's kinda rare.

Lol I'd be mad if a neighborhood kid opened our gate. Good thing they're padlocked. How small is your yard even? the size of a bathroom or something? Not sure how a bird of prey can't fit in a backyard... but then again the current house I have has a small yard.

The one before it has a yard 4-5x bigger. Big enough that a dog could literary tire itself out from running around. We had cement walls erected there. The walls were 3ft deep underground and above ground it was 8 foot tall. This was however when I lived in Puerto Rico. The yard was always so big... about the size of a medium sized parking lot maybe? Not sure if it was an acre or 2. As I am not sure how big an acre is(we never went with that).

It's not super small but large birds have to take off a certain way and wouldn't be able to in our yard.

Oh I didnt know that. I know not much of predatory birds. Asides that they tend to pick up prey and drop them from the sky to the ground and repeat till their bones are crushed and easier to eat. Or something like that. Same thing they do to turtles.
