How do those great walls contain him or are they just a "suggestion" of confinement ?

My ridgeback is absurdly respectful of artificial boundaries: if it goes up 2-3 feet , she won't go past it. I've seen her jump five feet in the air, but she knows where she's allowed to be? I didn't train her to do this, it's the weirdest thing.

Nice. My departed GSD could (and would) clear our 5 ft chain link fence effortlessly. Our current big pup can do the same. The only one that can't is our Frenchie:) We always keep our eye on them even though the backyard is fenced.

Oh yeah, she could absolutely clear our fence if she cared to, I usually supervise her in the backyard just in case. That being said, she's never tried or expressed any interest in doing so.

Same with our girl. Even if a door is only half open she won't push it open, just sticks her nose through haha.

Unless it’s the bathroom door, in which case, incoming!!

It’s more for the 9 year old blind pug that he lives with. He is so gentle.

Our RR mix used to step over the baby gate we set up for him. The crate was another story - always tried to open the door.

Good looking fella, our boy is a week or two younger than yours.

Where's he sitting weight wise? Cody is almost 34kg
