I throw them back over when I find them. No effect, I'm hoping to catch them in the act -- this way when they throw them over, they'll be coming right back over at them, lol.

What about one of those things that screw into the ground and you attach a long line to it and to him? Give him x amout of feet to run around the yard but he'll still be tethered to the thing so he cannot get out of the yard and you won't need to watch him constantly!

Show me a pic of your boy! I have a Dexter myself!

here is a tie out

UGH, that would make me so mad! I used to live in an apartment on the bottom floor and ppl above us would always throw their cig butts down in our little mini yard. I would get so mad. I always wanted to pick them up and throw them up in their balcony, but I didn't. :/

It works REALLY well ... especially if you take him somewhere that does not have a fenced in yard! I take my boys to my dads house, but he does not have a fenced in yard. They have a 25 foot teether so they have a 50 foot radius to play all the want in! yeah, thats the best part, its small & portable(you just unscrew it from the ground and rescrew it somewhere else)! I have mine in a bag with me all the time I take them out anywhere... just in case!
