QUESTION: What do I do if my dog is an escape artist?

ANSWER: Finding the reason for escape is the first step. For climbing or jumping dogs, add an extension to your fence that tilts inward at about a 45-degree angle. For digging dogs, bury chicken wire at the base of your fence and place large rocks at the base. Remember exercising your dog on a daily basis is always a good way to prevent your dog from becoming bored and looking for adventure.
