We have to watch her like a hawk if she's outside;
she'll jump the fence in a heartbeat.
Not sure how to break her of that. Anyone have any ideas?
Consider rigging a Dog Trolley across the back yard ...

You can Google "Dog Trolley" and get a lot of hits.
And visit Home Depot or Lowe's - they both have several "Trolley Kits" or
you can buy the individual pieces & parts.
Some tips:

* Install it HIGH enough that Dad can walk under it!
* Put "Stoppers" near the ends - so Maggie can't jump over the fences / walls.
* Use a Heavy Duty SPRING on the trolley wire to absorb shocks.
* Some folks put a SPRING on the dog's tie-down lead, too.
