How to Keep Your Dog From Roaming
Many pet owners struggle with keeping their farm dog from roaming. Although outdoor or farm dogs are often used to protect property, keeping them from running off too far can be difficult. We put together our top tips on how to keep your dog from roaming.
Why is my dog roaming?
Before trying to change your pet’s behavior, it is important to understand why that behavior occurs. Dogs can chase roam for a variety of reasons. Many farm and outdoor dogs are bred to be working animals that protect their herd or property. For these dogs, picking up a scent can cause them to investigate further than the owner may like. Dogs can also roam when they are looking for a mate.
Ways to prevent your dog from roaming.
There are several different methods to keeping your dog from roaming to prevent them from getting lost. In some cases, using a traditional fence around your farm or large property can keep your dog from chasing predators too far off your property.
