I was going to suggest an airline crate. Wish you were closer I have 2 and do noe to use them . Merlin was the only crate dog. Other 2 don't leave home except to fo to the bank (rarely)

The airline crate's a good idea, although if he's flipping the wire I'm guessing he might flip the airline so you may have to secure it in some way. If you want to stay with the wire, if you can I'd set up a camera to see exactly what he's doing and how, maybe you can prevent it that way. I had to do something similiar with my RB, Sandy, when he kept getting out of our yard and I couldn't figure out how. I finally set up a camera to figure out how he was doing it so I knew how to fix it.
Payson used to escape from his wire crate all the time, it was so annoying. We would tie it together with metal clasps and he would still escape. We finally bought one of the plastic airline kennels and haven't had a single problem with it.

Thanks for the great signature Kay!
I'd say it's more than a little small. Poor thing can't even stand up straight. Invest in an airline crate that's big enough for him. I'm sure he's worth it and those are much more secure.

I did the right thing by setting you free
But the pain is very deep.
If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
I miss you
I hear you whimper in your sleep
I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.
Fur as dark as the night.
Join me on this flight.
Paws of love that follow me.
In my heart you'll forever be.

How I wish I could hold you near.
Turn back time to make it so.
Hug you close and never let go.

I'd suggest a large crate like lv4dogs linked to.
Adele had the same problem of escaping from everything- one time when we were out for a while (about 6 hours, more than she was used to being left alone) she broke out of her wire crate that is simlar to Jack's and required stitches which alone cost way more than her new crate. I'd say, if he has to be crated, get him a new crate, because he might get hurt otherwise. Good luck!
Edit: I just wanted to add that Adele (aka Eldini) has never escaped from her new crate, so that kind might work for Jack, too.![]()
