Maybe we should have named the puppy Houdini? Murphy jumps over baby gates. He doesn’t climb them, or even need a running start. He just puts his front paws over the gate and pushes off with his back legs…and lands on the other side. He has also figured out how to open the swing-type gates. Now the careful system of baby gates we had all set up to keep Molly out of places like my craft room is useless! Taller gates would probably work, but then I won’t be able to get over them…
…and to think, we were planning on innocently fencing in our backyard this spring. Now I wonder if a 4-foot fence would keep him in – especially if he were faced with the temptation of a C.A.T.
Sounds like you may have a future agility champion on your hands.
