If the wall/fence is standard stock-fence height and there's something interesting on the other side of it, I would think it would be very hard to train the dog to stay in the garden; any temptation could turn up, a neighbour's cat appear, a squirrel, or whatever.

 

I have the same issue with my dog; I don't have a garden myself so it isn't a problem at home but if I visit my folks he jumps their fences easily; a friend has high hedges over the top of stock-fencing and he even looks hard at that in the winter when the hedges are bare and there are rabbits on the other side of it.

 

I would think it's either raise the fence height (six foot plus), build a run or don't let the whippet into the garden unsupervised...

Agree i let my dogs have the run of the garden.but i also have pens

A big, long rope or chain through the coller as a long lead just short enough that he cant reach the fences but long enough that he can have a mooch about in the garden.

I had this problem with my beddy whippet. The old lady next door puts chicken, etc down for the cats. Kept b0llocking her every time she did it. It took about two months but she finally seems to be getting the message!

6 foot fencing should do it might cost a bit but better to have a live dog than a dead one

I would think that making it secure would be the obvious answer....with a higher fence...

 

 

If he had thought of this when the dog was a pup he could have quite easily trained it not to leave the garden but i fear he will struggle now if it has matured..

there will always be temptation for the dog either 6 ft panels or a chain .

WHY DONT HE EXTEND THE HEIGHT OF THE WALL AND FENCE?

[paulredtop 8]

hes building the wall up and puting big fence panels round i asked him why he dident do that to start with he said because thourt that it may efect his veiws and because hes owned a whippet before witch dident try to escape but we checked and the veiws dont seem to be afected and a plus is that it stops some one from just poping over the wall and nicking his dog thanks everyone for your help

keep it on the outside of the fence that way it will jump into the garden.
