    Perhaps get her a longer tie-out then?? 15 feet isn't long enough for a dog's living area to be confined to.

    And you may have already answered this, but does she had a dog house or shelter for the winter (if you have winter lol)

    Ugh, I was really, really trying to stay out of this. I've been reading it, though. I think it's noble how many of you are really trying your hardest to get this child to understand that she is not taking care of her dog. And, I'm usually the eternal optimist in most situations. However, something I've learned the hard way...you CANNOT help someone who doesn't want the help. You CANNOT help someone who doesn't see that they're doing anything wrong. The situation is sad and will only get sadder once the new puppy is brought home. It's a fact, and, a miserably sad one at that.

    I'm quite certain they have chains longer than 15 feet though, am I right? I could have sworn we had some while I was stocking them at PetCo. Dont' get me wrong I AM NOT trying to "argue" with you I'm just trying to help you out and give you ideas since your mom doesn't allow her in the house nad you say she isn't allowed at the park because she attacked the duck!

    But we got this chain from a farm and garden place, and we had to pay for it by the foot, plus we had to buy the hook and everything...

    Since you already have a hook you won't need to buy a second one, and try your local PetCo or Petsmart, I KNOW they have them there. :P

    I briefly skimmed over this thread as it is so long.

    All I can say is poor, poor Roxy. She is not getting the home she deserves.

    Well if you're willing to spend like $500 on a new puppy, I think you can splurge for a longer chain from the store you got your other one from?

    Why is she breaking them?

    ...perhaps because she's lonely and bored?

    I think I'm going to stay out of this thread from now on, unless something really bothers me. I feel like having a temper tantrum.
