Rope’s End

2011-07-03 070015 322.JPG

The electronic containment fence which keeps Nala in the yard has a break in the wire which circumscribes her roaming territory. We were not aware that the technician who came earlier in the week had left the system off after he was unable to complete the repairs. It took two days for Nala to figure out she was a free dog and seized the opportunity to roam the neighborhood. Fortunately a friend spotted her and was able to secure her until Kyle was able to retrieve her. She is now secured to the end of a long rope (pictured here although difficult to see) and it is quite obvious to us that she does not appreciate this new arrangement. I have ordered a wireless system which we will test later next week. Hopefully it will work as advertised and we will no longer have to deal with repairing the buried wire on which our current system depends.
