Willow has been really stubborn lately not listening at all. I have an electric fence around my property and usually she is pretty good about it either with the collar or without. I try to rotate the collar between the two dogs…
A few weeks ago the battery went dead and I hadn’t gotten around to ordering a new one. Usually I put the collar on her a few days a week I don’t keep it on all the time.
Now that the weather is getting warmer I think she is testing her boundaries again so I have not been leaving them alone outside so I usually go out with them.
The other day she was at the edge of the yard and I called her she looked at me and ran!!….she and Autumn got out of the yard and ran around the corner I went after them but she wouldn’t come near me no matter what I did she just kept walking away and staying just out of my reach I got so mad
that I had to leave her and just go home I was afraid if I kept chasing her she would go into the street.
She finally did come home after about an hour but I still had to go find Autumn I found her about ¼ mile away at the local elementary school playing in the field with another dog.
I immediately called my electric fence people and $300.00 later I have a second collar and fresh batteries.
When she did come home she “knew” she was bad she looked at me with her tail down and when I let her into the house she went right into her crate…I didn’t even say anything to her..by this tile I was just glad she was home safe and I didn’t even bother scolding her by the look on her face she seem to know daddy was mad.
