I wanted to get some tractor work done before the rains start in - it is falling lightly right now.
Unfortunately, my new (six months old) puppy Bear has taken to treating the tractor like a toy. He doesn't chase it but he will run around it as I work. He always stays a couple feet away but it would only take one moment of inattention on our parts for him to be squished and that would just kill me. My other dog - Grace - hangs out in sight about 20 feet away.
Today, I tied him up to some fence nearby so he could still see me work but he would be out of the way. I check and he is always lying or sitting down right where I left him. I finish and park, walk back to the fence and there is no knot. Bear had untied the knot and he continued to just stay there perfectly. I used a simple cow hitch - going to need to use something more Bear-proof next time.
