Dogs got out of our yard last night. Both males (brothers) and always stay together. They have collars, but the tags have come off. They usually come home, so we think someone was concerned for them and took them in. If you have them or know where they are, please contact us at 713-419-0576 or post to this message board.Thanks 4951
Do you keep them outside all day and /or night? Do you exercise them? They just might be bored and need more stimulation. I hope they come home, you fix the fence problem and exercise them daily. A tired dog is a happy dog. Seriously, just take 30 minutes in the morning or evening to go for a walk or play with them in the back yard. Throwing balls, tug toys, chase, etc. get the kids involved too. Buy some cheap hot dogs and cut them up and use them as treats to teach sit, Down, stay. Dogs love to work. In the morning let the dogs out to potty And hide some kibble and hot dog pieces around the house. Then when you let them in before leaving for work tell them to "find it". And they will have a blast hunting for treats. You can hide them in the yard too if they are outside dogs, which it really hope they aren't. You can also feed them kibble with a few treats in a Kong toy. It makes them work for food. Like I said dogs love to work and are happier and less destructive when they have stimulation in their life. Bored dogs are destructive. Who wants to live at home 24/7? I would go bat poop crazy if I never left the house or yard. 4951
