My neighbors have a puppy that is always escaping their yard. He literally climbs their fence to get out into the front yard, or the other neighbor’s yard…and then he often climbs that fence to get into MY YARD.
I’ve heard of dogs climbing fences before, but I never really believed that they were climbing it – I assumed that they must be jumping.
That is, until I saw Hadji, the neighbor’s dog, climbing our fence to get into our yard to play with our dogs!
I tried to catch it on video but damn Siri kept popping up and by the time I actually got it to start recording, he was already jumping down into our yard.
Then, being technically-incompetent as I can sometimes be, I accidentally erased the part where he was jumping and was only left with video of him playing with Foxy, our Alaskan Malamute.
I was honestly surprised that Foxy didn’t eat him, as she is not too friendly to small dogs that come into her territory!
Have you ever seen a dog climb a fence?

February 8, 2012 at 5:57 pmThat is so funny! We used to have a huge Rottweiler (did I spell that right?) and he used to jump our fence all the time. One day we heard our neighbor outside and found our dog dangling over the fence because he had gotten stuck. I wish I would have had a camera it was priceless.

February 8, 2012 at 11:02 pmI had a little mixed breed dog when I was a kid that climbed fences. She also climbed trees! Now we have a dog that runs up the privacy fence!

February 9, 2012 at 11:38 amOur dog Jake climbed over the fence the night that he was neutered!! We thought that having him neutered would stop him from doing the climbing. We couldn’t figure out how he was jumping over cause he was still so small, until we saw him in action.

February 9, 2012 at 5:18 pmHaha! He’s so cute! We had a pitt years ago that used to scale the fence, there was a board at an angle in one corner for support and he used to shimmy up it somehow and hop over, so funny!
