Escape Artist

Blondie is an escape artist.
If I do not let her come with me for a ride in the truck she is usually gone when I get home. Unhappily she is teaching her bad habits to one of the boys. In the last week we have found 3 places the she actually pulled the staples out of the fence. Once the staples are out she lays down crawls under the stands up to bend the wire up. Her boy "Charlie" follows her out. So far "Duke" has no desire to leave the yard. Even though we did leave the gate open one afternoon for Blondie and Charlie to get back in. After about an hour Duke went out to trail them. Ilona got very upset and jumped in her truck to go find him.. She brought him home.. Now I have to check the batteries on the shock collar and start zapping to teach them to stay away from the fence.

A thought occurs to me. Deer Chasers or whatever they are called. You are supposed to attach them to the bumper of your car and they scare off the deer before they get hit. So that tells me it is a high frequency sound generator. Question is? Is the sound generated from the forward motion of the vehicle or is the device connected to a battery? Guess I'll have to order a set to find out. What is the range on these things. I have a 400' area on the front fence. Hmm off to do a little research.

Chores for tomorrow include. Unloading the truck. Today we went out a disassembled two sheds. The sheet metal will be put on the back fence to keep the dogs apart. Also need to replace two elbow joints on the water lines. And it is WAY past time to start working with the dogs.
