I once had to tether a dog named Tiger. He could be ferocious. But, he was also a great escape artist. But, I didn’t actually “chain” him, but used a thin steel cable tied to another horizontal cable. This way, he had access to almost half the backyard including the back porch. Since Tiger, who died, I’ve never had to tether a dog.

By “new”, the dog probably means a “longer” chain.

That would be a really nice gift.

A really nice gift would be to remove the chain.

Interesting how this dog can think and communicate and Odie really can’t…

Aww poor doggie. No sense having a dog, if it’s life is only lived chained up in a yard.

I had a friend with a dog he kept on a chain, he took the chain off for a week, and the dog stayed within the circle.

Definitely a fence – no dog should ever be chained or tied out :(

The author’s bias to dogs is amusing.
