Hi: I recently adopted Murphy from a no kill shelter. In his records, a Vet listed him as border collie but his other records say he is a mixed lab. He looks like a lab. My first issue is that he likes to jump the wall which surrounds my outdoor pool
Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your concern. I would recommend looking into fence / wall rollers. These are rolling bars that are installed on the top of the wall and when Murphy encounters the roll bar, it rolls on him preventing him from catching his footing and going over the wall. You can also look at installing an invisible fence to prevent him from going near the wall around the yard. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

I have changed Buddy's play pen twice because he jumps out if them. I step out for approximately an hour leaving him in his playpen with his pee pad, his bed, a blanket, his favorite toy, and he still jumps out. I make sure all doors are closed, and
It sounds like Buddy needs a kennel or a playpen with a top on it unfortunately. Now that he has figured out he can jump out he is likely to continue this behavior because it is rewarding to him. My own puppy discovered he could climb his play pen at a young age! I purchased some thick plastic garden fencing and used it to put a "roof" on his playpen to prevent this. Another option would be a large crate if you want a bigger area for him to play in. They also make very tall playpens for larger dogs, but be sure that Buddy isn't actually climbing the side of the pen before you get one of these!

I keep my dog locked in her play pen for most of the time. The reason for this is because she eats EVERYTHING. Anything she can get her paws on she will eat unless it’s too large for her to swallow and it scares me for a # of reasons. Her “crate” is
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! On the contrary, I actually think that what you are doing is the healthiest choice for Snowball. There are some dogs that, for no reason, eat EVERYTHING. (This has nothing to do with you as an owner by the way.) As an emergency room vet, I see "repeat offenders" all the time and unfortunately, it takes two or three emergency surgeries for the owners to figure out that they need to keep their pet in a "dog-proofed" area. But you are being VERY smart in my opinion in keeping her in a safe place when you cannot directly supervise her. This is exactly what I would recommend. As long as Snowball is a healthy weight, has play sessions with you once or twice a day, and gets walks or supervised time outside every day, I have absolutely no problem with this scenario.

what do I do if my puppy is smart enough to get out of her cage on her own?
I would recommend getting a different cage or one that requires two fingers to engage a spring. Dogs are unable to open the cages that have the springs in my experience. These are similar to cat carriers that have the spring loaded mechanism on the door. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

I have a lab mix (about 2 years old) and I live on a dead-end street on 4 acres. I want her to stay in the yard, but sometimes she visits neighbors for hours at a time and there are a couple of dogs that come through and she will roam with them. I
I think an underground fence or an electric fence that has a home base (see link below) might be the best solution. Petsafe is a good company who makes these products. It shouldn’t scare her further away but it should keep her inside the boundaries. I would keep the level on low to keep her from becoming scared to go in the yard. This is the safest thing to prevent her from getting out and either getting lost or injured. There is also a GPS tracking device for the collar called whistle that you can use to keep up with her if she still gets out. I hope this helps. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/petsafe-wireless-instant-fence-pet-containment-system?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&adpos=1o3&scid=scplp692131&sc_intid=692131&cm_mmc=PLA-GG-_-PTC_P_SUP_PLA-GG_FY17_SCShopping-Mobile-_-Non+VIP-_-92700026257943398&kwid=p26257943398&device=m&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjtH4nPzz1wIVh4WzCh05bAl_EAQYAyABEgJ1sfD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
