Message Body:
Does he do this cause of any fighting or heavy-handed behavior from the other dogs? He may want "out" of that threatening environment. Either way, it's a pain for you and a danger to him, so I would not tie him, he just may strangle himself. Instead, buy a shock collar, adjustable with degree of shock, to train him, from a catalog like Lambriarvet, Jeffers Vet, Omaha Vaccine, and then when he tries to escape he would get a jolt. Or, you can ask a vet for a calm-aid for him, as he seems a bit hyper than usual. Or you can just get/save up for a chain-link fence cage, about $120 at Walmart or Petsmart, and put a tarp top on it or wooden canopy. My Dobe's did this activity also,and the only way I cured it, was to put an electric fence atop the 6-ft fence. It worked in one shot. And cured the neighbor kids from hassling my dogs!! The very reason the dogs tried to jump! My little ole camera recorded those neighbor kids who claimed they were angels. Good luck now.
