Or maybe it’s the cars going past at 60 mph.

Cur your enthusiasm

Might as well be a pair of cats if all you can do is block the door

You would likely find yourself in the dog pound if you did.

Or could it be that ignoble awareness of the dinner bowl behind you?

can’t outrun their stomachs…….

You’re over thinking it.

Curtailed

Our Missy loved to escape and run down the street when we first adopted her from the Humane Society. Now that she knows this is her furever home, she doesn’t step paw out of our yard.

That dog is certainly verbose!

Obviously you is afraid someone would steals you, oh rare talking dog.

My grandson’s dog would take off every chance she had. Her tag had our phone number on it and we would get a call from one of the neighbors to come and get her. Dogs just seem to know when there’s a gate or door left open.

That or the invisable fence.

Minimum security fence

or the food dish on the porch

Fear of the unknown?

Like people, some pets have it, and some don’t.

our girl, who inherited her wanderlust from her mother, would’ve been gone without blinking an eye…

Or the sound of a can opener starting on a can?

It’s the food bowl.

Good dogs!!!

It’s so flat in southern Saskatchewan that you can still see your dog three days after it runs away.
