Re: [pyrnet] bark collars and digging

["Heidi and Scott Wiggs" <campsite@catskill.net>]

There are many nights I would love to put them on my pyrs, especially Pooh
Bear.  She loves to hear herself bark.  What kills me is when  we went to
look at these two girls, they never barked at us.  In fact they never barked
the entire time we were there.  Well they have more than made up for it now.
I don't think a bark collar would work though, they have way too much
fur....

Pooh Bear also digs out and digs back in whenever she fancies.  However she
will not go out an open gate.  Winnie Bear will not dig out, however feels
that whenever a gate is open a fraction of an inch that it is an open
invitation to leave.

My main problem is this - when they get out, they will not come back when
they are called.  They look at you and ignore you.  They will come back when
they are good and ready.  I really despise having to chase a dog.  Are all
pyrs like this?
