Damn

Houdini has escaped yet again - mind you folks, we have a very large backyard with 6 foot privacy fencing all around. This dog was on a 60 foot chain within the perimeter of the backyard and he still ran off.

At this point, I have to wonder - maybe he just doesn't like us?

He somehow pulled himself off the chain - left his license tag on the ground but apparently managed to keep his collar on.

Our other two dogs have never done this kind of thing.

Now, I have to go look for the little mutt and pray he isn't dead.

He's probably in jail again.

sigh

Update:

John found him. The little shit is here with me - we don't know if he was close by the whole time or not, but needless to say, even in a fenced yard with a chain, he ain't going out without adult supervision until we can find a way to keep him here at home!

Little peckerhead. I say we chain his front feet together like a chaingang hobble.

Strip him naked, put him on a leash and point & laugh at him while John takes pictures.

Seriously, I dunno what to suggest. They have those expensive buried wire systems. I think chickenwire around the fence might be the cheapest and most effective idea. Lot of work though. Obviously you're going to have to do something though. PITA to have to supervise the dog for every doggy potty break.

It just really sounds like the name fits the little bugger.
