Thanks Bob I guess it just shows how smart these doodles are. Gracie is three months old and will sit on command and comes most of the time. I think I'll start training to the fence about six or seven months and see how she does. Glad to know you like the fence. We can't put up yard barriers here so I don't have a choice.
