We don't have a fence, but we have a huge heavy duty chain leash that's about 30 feet long. will this be good enough to get it? the dog is nice with my nephew and loves me and my other sister. no problems other than scareing the horses. will the dog be a good choice? Her name is Ethel and is about 1-2 years old. my dog before her was a yellow lab, but she past on. even a month before her death, she was a crazy dog, thats why we have so many chains. will the jackie be good at my home? please help-Ashlyn M.
why? it has about 55 feet of space to run, and like 98 percent of dogs in the world are chained up. it will have a happy home, and a HUGE space to run!
I don't like the idea of dogs being chained up, but it would be really hard on the Jack Russell to go from a huge farm to a 30' chain. I also have a JRT and there is NO WAY she could tolerate being chained up.
