Well the dog didn't come back at all today so fingers crossed it stays away for good! It had me worried about finding a dead dog in my pond lol
Suicidal dog? Have it ever crossed your mind that the dog may like water/swimming? Unless it's a bulldog, dog hardly get drown in a "kiddy" pool...
I assume it just wanted to swim but if it had of fallen in it would not have gotten back out. The actual pool is a little under a metre high (give or take) and a little over half way full.
The dog looks like a ****zu (sp?) cross terrier of some kind. It wouldn't be able to stand on the bottom of the pool nor would its front legs stretch from the water to the top lip of the pool to pull itself out.
Believe me when I say it wouldn't get back out. The pool is the height of my hips and the dog the size of a mans boot lol
If you know the owner of the dog tell him or her about their dog its their responsibility to keep it from roming.
If the pond is too deep for the dog to stand in he won't catch your fish. A good swim might break him from trying.
I don't know who's dog it is unfortunately or I would of spoken to them by now. I've seen it in my yard a few times but last night is the only time its tried getting into the pool. And it was damn close a couple of times too!
I wasn't worried about him trying to catch my goldfish, I was worried he would drown if he fell in while I slept.
Either way my cat pen is ready to be used as a makeshift dog trap whenever the need arises.
Thanks guys.
