    We have 7 acres in a somewhat rural area & 3 dogs. Our 6 yr old Aussie (spayed) has recently (last 3 wks) started getting out. We checked & fixed all spots under or in the field fence that she could get out. We're thinking she must be climbing &/or jumping the fence. Field fence is 48" tall. Our property is very wooded with oak trees & lots of brush. But there are some areas that a somewhat clear.

Of course that was fine that he got her off the busy street but the guy gave her a treat & took in the house. He told us how sweet she was, etc. etc. Since then she has gotten out 4 more times.
