I am asking help today with my german shepherd, Alexus. She is a 2yr old very active girl who my fiance got as a puppy. She has gone to daycare 5 days a week since she was completely vaccinated & we also did puppy class & a basic home manners class. She has a TON of energy, an understatement really, and I'm always trying to keep her busy & occupied doing good things. The trouble is, we moved at the first of January to a new & bigger house. The yard is 3x the size of the other yard we had, problem is we don't have a fence. My future father in law has dug holes & is going to put up a fence but here it is 2 months later & no fence. We are outside city limits and so no animal control & everyone's dogs run loose out here. I did not know that when we moved in, mysteriously no dogs were loose when we came & looked at the place and moved our stuff in. We keep our dogs in our yard with a zip line type tie out. My dogs ( I have a lab mix too) bark at these other dogs all day long. So I took some of their toys outside, we play ball, frisbee, the dogs wrestle to keep them occupied with something else instead of barking. Now the neighborhood dogs are stealing my dogs toys & treats & even the water bowl for outside is missing. I've tried to talk to the neighbors but that didn't work. I stay outside with them when they are out, if I'm not playing with them I'm on the patio watching them. I can't keep Alexus inside & still wear her out the way she needs to be. Is there anyone out there with suggestions on what I can do? We signed a year lease here & paid a pet fee to live here, it's hard to find places to rent that will let you have pets. But I'm constantly having to get onto her to stop barking, get out of the trash, get out of the litterbox. I hate that I'm not able to enjoy her. I'm thinking here lately am I in over my head? Is she too much dog for me? Should I find her another home where she isn't getting onto all the time?
