OK, thanks for clearing that up, that helps. For some reason I had the image of a suburban area like where I used to live and I was horrified at the thought of dogs just running amuck, but if you're on a semi isolated farm with acerage it isn't AS bad, but they do still need to be confined for their own safety. Have you thought of getting a large kennel, or fencing off a part of your yard for them to run around in while they can't be supervised?
