It is very important for dogs to be fenced in. Even if you have one that does tend to stay home, sometimes there are temptations too great that will lead them away from their yard. Roaming dogs could possibly get hit by a car, taken to the pound, or get into dog fights with other dogs.

Is your dog outdoor only? I would suggest crate training her and allowing her to be an indoor dog. It is just not safe to be chained or to let her roam.

Do you spend a lot of time with her? Maybe she won't learn to sit or stay because she has too much pent up energy? Try playing with her some to wear her out a little before training sessions. Also use some good treats like cut up hot dogs.
