How do you keep your dog in and around your home with no fence?

We have a medium to large size dog with about 7 acres. He has more than enough room, but still insists on running off. He is an inside/outside pet. I'm a firm believer in not penning up or chaining up a dog, but sometimes we have to chain him in the yard to do his business or just to play with him. We don't want him hit by a car or stolen. I've looked into the electronic fence that is buried around your property, but it is expensive.

I'd recommend fencing a smaller area around your house. It's a lot more secure and safe for your dog than letting him run loose unsupervised on seven acres. And it's a lot more comfortable and humane than tying him up.

An invisible fence requires a lot of training time on your part and the dog IS getting an electric shock, no matter what those companies say. If the dog charges after a wild animal and runs across the fenceline, then he can't come HOME without getting a shock. Also, there is nothing to prevent a stray dog from coming on to your property and attacking your dog. And there's nothing to stop someone from stealing him.

Also, in many states there is an "attractive nuisance" law - suppose your dog is loose in your yard and being good. But some little kid seems him and comes into your yard to pet him. If he knocks the child down and injures him or bites him - YOU could be liable.

Bad dog breath can be a bad problem for your dog and you, at times a dogs breath an be unbearable and make bonding with your dog a chore you’d rather avoid at all costs. This may not be due to your dog and more down to the care you have not realized that your dog should have.

Dog’s bad breath like most other dog symptoms can be the cause of many different issues separately or together, this makes the cause hard to diagnose without a proper examination from a professional dog carer or vet.

Common causes of dog bad breathe –

Maybe your dog is finding it hard to eat or swallow which can lead to dog’s bad breath and other illnesses that are related.

Saliva drooling from your dog’s mouth may also be a cause of bad dog breath, as more saliva gets built up in your dog’s mouth is makes it easier for bacteria to breed resulting in bad breath.

The last and most common form of bacteria build up is from not cleaning or not properly cleaning your dog’s teeth, this enables tartar to form and make the bad odor you are forced to smell day in day out.

Many believe that food choice and what you feed your dog is a problem when dog breath is concerned, as this may be true to an extent this is more of a temporary short term problem and the reason above is more likely to be the problem cause.

There are plenty of dental hygiene products available in pet shops and online, some work better than others on different dogs but you best bet is to clean your dog’s teeth regularly to stop the bacteria build up, this is where the problem begins and where you should target your efforts.

If you fear the problem has got too far to recover or damage or the gums and teeth is visible you should contact your vet as soon as possible for help and a proper diagnosis of your pet.
