Hey Everyone!
Well, I was wondering about an invisible fence. My parents say that a real fence is out of the question, because they think it "ruins the appearance of the yard". But, he does pretty well off leash. My aunt and her boyfriend came over Friday and are staying until Tuesday, and my aunt and my sister and I went to go see a movie at the theatre, while my parents and my aunts boyfriend went to go look at a new car.
We took him out of his crate, and we usually let him off the leash so that he can go "sprinkle" since he gets excited whenever we get home, and he likes to go offleash so that whenever he goes outside he can run out at his own speed, not dragging my mom.
Since it was daytime, my dad decided to take him out to play, and I got the Frisbee, and we started tossing it to him while he went to fetch it, and we had a fun time chasing him around the yard trying to get him to let it go so we could have more fun again throwing it (he likes to play keepaway!) and a car came by and we couldn't stop him, and he stopped at the sidewalk.
He let the car pass by. Yet, whenever he is outside it scares me, and I almost have a heartattack! I want to get an invisible fence, but I want to know, is this considered abusive? I would like to get one because I cant really play Frisbee with him, and I cant play fetch in the house either, so I want to go and get an invisible fence.
Thanks in advance!
