Get a rope.

Yup. I am glad my neighbors are so afraid of my dogs that they won't even come near the fence, much less get in my yard. I always worry about anti-freeze, though, as I have a dog that would rather drink out of mud puddles in the driveway than his water bowl, which always worries me. Not sure what the attraction is...does anyone else know?

I heard that anti-freeze has a sweet taste that some dogs and cats are attracted to.

Anti freeze tasted sweet to dogs. In Albuquerque we have a law that all anti freeze sold have a bittering agent in it to discourage dogs drinking it. The law went through after a particularly nasty dog poisoning.
