Kayla's 'Log'

I've had a few comments about the size of Kayla's log ... and it not being big enough to slow her down.

The log isn't supposed to slow her down, or hinder her movement in any way. It is just intended to hook on the fence top and STOP her when she goes over a fence.

When I first got her, she was on a farm where it was OK to go over the fences to get from field to field to with with different groups of sheep. That was NOT acceptable here!

She had three spots where she would go over the fence after her arrival. I put the log on her ... and every morning for three days, she was sitting with a sheepish look on her face ... on the wrong side of the fence ... unable to go anywhere ... because the log had done its job and hooked on to the top of the fence.
Now ... it is mostly symbolic. I hang it on the fence by her food dish. That is usually enough of a deterent ... but not this time ... :-)
