Learning to escape

Yesterday I saw both dogs dart across the yard and I had a funny feeling. So I went out and Blossom had busted off a PVC bar that we had at the bottom of our gate and pushed the chain link and bar out of the way. She was out! Luckily when I called her back she came right to the gate so I let her back in.

We had a bit of fence repair to do so I set about taking measurements. While doing so, Sunshine was methodically testing the strength of the fence in that area and trying to dig under. Oh dear, what had he learned???

We have cement in the ground under the gate so he made no progress and I had bungee corded the bar and fence back in place until I could get a metal bar to bolt to the bottom of the gate but that didn't stop him from poking at them to see if he could push them out of the way just like Blossom was able to.

I locked the dogs in the house while I went to the hardware store, got the metal bar and bolts which are now installed and hopefully Blossom proof. But with a Husky you never know...
