Dianne Davis Webboard User Reg: 12-16-2003 Posts: 25 Loc: Offline	I have three dogs two shepherds and one toy poodle. If giving the chance they all fence fight. I can put the bark collars on the big dogs. But I have not found a way to keep the poodle (which is only 6 pounds) from fighting with the neighbor's dogs. Now back in November the neighbor's dogs pulled him through and chewed him up pretty good. I was hoping the expirance would have made him stop. But here recently he has started back up again. He's not an ouside dog and only goes out to potty but it doesn't take him long before he starts. I was wanting to know what you guys think I could do to stop this behavior.

Put up an electric fence about 8" off the fence and about 8" high so that if he goes near the fence he gets zapped..... Or you could use an e-collar, although it just may escalate rather than fix the problem.... OR You could put up a kennel run so that the poodle cannot go near the fence.

Or do the electric fence around the inside peremeter. http://www.petstreetmall.com/bark-collars/ The site above has a collar for small dogs, but I just used my regular collar on a small dog I had here for training about a month ago.... I did have to punch a new hole in it but that was no biggie.... ( all I did was a google search with "no bark collars for small dogs") Until The Tale of the Lioness is told, the Story will Always Glorfy the Hunter
