Put a hot wire around it. He will get the hint. Not talking about frying him, just a little tingle makes a big difference. :work:

Wireless fence, my lab loves to go Visit everyone when I'm not home, have used them for several Labs, it's the ticket, just make sure you follow the directions on training him for it

HAHA! Thats what my dog used to do. Couldnt keep her in there for nothing. She did everything except dig underneath it.

Another question is, is that black rubber mats he is on. That get way to hot to be on if it is.

evidrine 06-09-2011 09:56 AM

Looks like plastic pallets?

I had one destroy a gate before, he was not the sharpest tool in the shed. Hotwire would be my suggestion and I would turn it up! This dog is probably very bored, spend more time with him and if possible put a radio close enough to the kennel for him to hear it. Talk radio should work, no rap, or heavy metal. Might also want to invest in a welded panel kennel ($300), tractor supply has them and they are far superior to the chain link you have.

He's only in there when i'm at work and he gets plenty of exercise everyday ...... maybe i'll turn the radio on for him!!!

It's plastic pallets that i got courtesy of Wally world...... I was going to paint them, but he's always got shade and he's got a pool to cool off in!!!

Either hot wire or take a day off and put a shock collar on him. Watch him from inside the house and every time he so much as touches the fence, you nail him. It won't take long.

I have the wireless fence already just got the kennel to keep him from tearing everything up....... which he's broke out everyday this week and hasn't been chewing anything up..... so i may just let him stay out and see how he does...

Leave him balls & toys plus rawhide bones to keep him occupied....When they get bored is when they tear up stuff!

Tore my kennel down. Keep her on a chain while i'm not home. She's good about being loose, just cant keep her from knocking over trash cans. She's terrible for that. Tried the shock collar but never does it while im around. Started locking my trash cans up so she would leave them alone, she just goes after the neighbor's cans then. Will eventully have to go with the wireless fence.

I bought a wireless that, uses radio no wire to bury, works good till battery dies which is about every 2 months.

Josh, just let Totsie have him for a couple of days. That should take care of any issues you are having. LOL
