Bad Dog!


Bad Dog or Good Dog....that is the question???
This little Jem was as naughty as can be yesterday. She is the most mild sweet little dog till about 2 :30, when she hears the roar of the buses coming by. She turns crazy!
So we know this and we are careful not to let her out. One of the biggest problems we have with her is keeping he in our yard. We have a playground in our backyard and she thinks the kids are their to play with her! We have a fenced in backyard but she has a few places she can sneak under.
So we remedied this, buy purchasing a shock collar...which she respects!! It has a tone button that you push before you use the shock button...which we have only used, like twice...she got the hint real quickly!! She would see us with the controller and she would come running!
So yesterday..she got in the school yard to visit some kids and they had a dog...what a circus! She ran and ran..the more you chaser the more she thinks it's a game! Oh, did I mention she is part Jack Russell! Everyone, at first, thinks they can catch her but then we inevitably hear...she's fast! So, 20 minutes later..Trent caught her! So we brought her in and I thought she was in the house for good and low and behold about 10 minutes later someone left the door ajar and she was off again! We all were so irritated! Off the the boys went to catch her. This time she ran and ran and ran! She saw in the distance some people...oh, that's a HS baseball game. You guessed it right on the field..stupid dog..some how Tyler chased her off the field and eventually caught her. They had to stop the game and wait for her. I did chuckle a little when they can home and reported this! We found out the shock collar isn't working correctly..fine time to find that out!!
And you thought that was all...again someone left the back door ajar and off again..to see another dog at the playground..bad dog. She was easily caught this time, as I think she was worn out!

Jaxi...I'm gonna start waterboarding you! Just kidding!

I think the wrong animal is wearing the shock collar. Maybe who ever is leaving the door ajar should be fitted for one too!!

LOL!!! I can see why this would be frustrating! Thank goodness our dog is a bit too big to find ways out of the yard.

Oh, and I have to agree with Julie! LOL!
