Yikes! I had hubby get me some mace spray..figured that was better than myself or my dogs getting hurt. I know you're a good 'fur mom' and watch cooper so i'm not worried!

Please keep an eye on Cooper whenever he is out. Someone's dog (who may not be dog friendly) could get loose by accident and go after Cooper when he is outside. Also, a sudden noise could make him fearful enough to take off, his fear overruling any impluse he gets to stop at the fence. Just wanted to let you know that electric fences, while good, do not keep your dog safe by any means. Have a great day!

Not saying to put collars on people, lol, just saying it's a good way to train a dog to where he can go. Much better than being chained outside.
