Sandy---I have been working on Sophie till the cows come home (without her).<grin> She is pretty good during the day but we have to make sure she is confined by 6:00pm or any and everythng you do will just drive her out in the field farther, along with a couple of low woofs to show just how hard she is patrolling. If she does her disappearing act during the day depending on how hell-bent she is to find out what's over the next ridge she may grace you with her presence. Some on the list have had ideas or sure-fire tricks that work for them but if you have any new ones let me know.She is the great protector of "Close to the Sky". By the way does anyone know why she would tip her dish over on the ground to eat? Thanks--Bonnie&Sophie&Bear BE HAPPY!!!!!

The book advises good solid fencing, not chaining, and not free range conditions pyrs. Recall this book is about choosing a breed that suits you and your home. It is not about training or living with one that you already have. Honestly, if it is a priority, you can train your pyr to come when called.
