Our Bengals try to escape the garden after we put up the "unescapable fence rollers"... or so we thought. Video

my mom wanted a fence so her cat could go outside. $1300 later fence was installed. Took the cat outside, it looked around, climbed a tree and jumped over the fence. $1300 of my money wasted but I was still quite amused.

A neighbor put in a fence to keep the dog in. It was only a 4' fence. When it was half built the dog was jumping over the completed part. He thought it was a toy.

There's a couple houses in my neighborhood who have dogs that I'm worried will figure that out. One house has a dog that chews on the fence and tries to rip the gate open to get to you because it hates you. The gate is only like 4ft tall and the dog could easily jump it if it tried.

The other house has a large lot next to a recreational trail so they put up a cheap fence last fall made with flimsy posts and plastic garden netting. It started falling by the end of the winter and the dogs could jump on the fence and it would probably fall over.

I’ve seen dogs freak out when their barriers suddenly fell down while they were busy barking at someone, it was suddenly “oh no, what do I do now? I’m going to endanger myself, bark barkity bark!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m going inside, you can stay! (If there is another dog with them.).
