    NOTE: i apologise if this is an inappropriate place to ask for help, but i figured most of y'all dont check the help den much.


    So I have a two story house, the top floor is where we sleep, eat etc, and downstairs is basically the garage with cars and crap in it. We also have an intelligent dog that knows when it goes to bed. And refuses to go downstairs when its bedtime.
    He's a border collie x cattle dog and i give him a lot of exercise. I have tried to clicker train him to bed, but he just knwos he'll be stuck there. I stick bones and food and everything in there, but he refuses to listen. The reason we dont put him in the yard is because we're, and by that my parents, afraid he'll be snatched or escape through the night.
    Suggestions? and im thinking of buying an outside leash thing where he's secure but still has space to roam. But thats like $50, so im trying to keep my options open.


    hiya!
    i have no experience with something like that and I definitely think the help den is a better place to put this in (i'm sure experts do check it, kinda like how i check it every now and then to help out any newbies (not that I'm an expert) ), but


    bump, i guess? ^^


    i think it's a good idea to relocate this thread to the help den or maybe pose your question in the OOC chat thread. that way, people will look at it and stuff. c:
