Rooster, I had the same problem for a little bit with the fence. I put a invisible fence on my real fence. One part of the loop on the bottom and he other attached to the top. No problems since!

Been there, spent that wad of dough...now when Duke jumps the fence...he stops at the top for a split second and "shakes" a bit....then goes on over!

Bert stole my cookies!!
 I think he used them to bribe Ed into something naughty?

Cool tractor...I collect and restore Garden Tractors.
My newest hobby is apparently building and repairing fence. Not different fences though, I'm more of a specialists, I spend ALL of my free time working on only one fence, the same fence, repeatedly, with the same two dogs in it.....or the two dogs that are supposed to be "IN" it..... :bash: I have committed massive efforts and funds to this hobby! In the end, it will either be Fort Friggin' Knox....or I'll be the last thing committed!

I live about 40 miles from Fort Knox and have passed the "Gold Vault" many times, that would be one impressive fence Rooster!  Do like they do and usr multi-layer fencing, maybe they will stay in lol

I spend a lot of time working on stuff, mechanical and fabrication.  Occasionally I get to hunt deer, and other woodland animals.  I spend a lot of time with my family and friends, most of the time I'm cooking, grilling, smoking meat, etc.  I race anything as often as possible (circle, drag, mud, bench)  Really been spending a lot of time on my 4x4 trucks lately, just installed lockers and gears, cage is next (wanting to go crawling some time soon).  I love to ride my atvs, might start racing those one day, already have most of the engine parts to build a bigger motor!  
You never win a race by focusing on one aspect of the race!  Motor isn't everything, but you better have a good one!  Chassis too!  But remember, a driver can take a slow machine and make it faster!  I may not have/be the best of any of these but I'm trying!
