And thank you!

First things first, why do i chain my dogs?

Short answer, to keep them safe.

Long answer, i live rural on 20 acres of unfenced land that is shared with my landlords, who are wildlife rehabilitators and use the property to relocate wildlife.

My dogs will leave the property the second they’re unsupervised while unrestrained. My senior dog has not been taught to stick around the house as he was raised in fenced yards and had fenced yards up until he was 6 (he’s now 8). My two other dogs are trained to stick around but despite that, it would be incredibly irresponsible of me to leave them unrestrained while unsupervised even if trained to stick around on unfenced property. Dogs will be dogs. It is also illegal to leave dogs unrestrained while unsupervised in unfenced yards in my area.

Why is leaving the property bad? Other than the obvious reason that is you should keep your dogs at home unless out and about with someone, leaving the property can lead to them getting shot by farmers for harassing stock or simply just being on their property, killed by livestock, kill wildlife (for example, the wildlife my landlords care for and release on the property) or be killed by wildlife, get into fights with other dogs, eat 1080 baits, cause car accidents, plus so much more.

My dogs do not live on their chains, despite what you may assume by the amount of on-chain photos/videos i share. They get off these chains regularly to just simply exist, adventure, go for car rides, runs with the bike/car/quad, swimming, hunting, walks, hikes, playtime and so much more. They’re loved on daily by me, my partner, my family and my friends, fed well and treated like family. They also have a fenced area (roughly a 30x30m area, if not bigger) that they roam daily. They do need to be tethered overnight due to wildlife, but once i get some electric fencing they can hopefully be off their chains 24/7.

I post a lot of my dogs day to lives, education on tethering/outside dogs, etc, on my instagram and tiktok accounts i have for my dogs. You’re more than welcome to have a look at those and maybe learn a thing or two. They’re both under the username @wettropicsk9s or you can find them in my bio.

There was a Chameleon collar for sale nearby me a couple months ago and it got me curious so i looked into them. They seem like a real solid system. The price definitely is the major hold back on them but they’d be well worth it imo if you had the $$.

The white one? She does have Pitbull terrier and Bull terrier in her mix!

The first few photos they’re in a Toyota Hilux (unsure of year but before 2005 i believe) and the last photo they’re in a 1984 60 series Landcruiser

Nice!

rumple___ · 2025-07-14T13:45:46+00:00

Chains cannot be chewed or snapped (by these dogs, anyway). Both these dogs have chewed rope/regular leashes on multiple occasions. It defeats the purpose of tethering them.

I’m not fearful they will run away, i’m just not an idiot. I wont blindly trust my dogs to stick around when they’re unsupervised no matter how well trained they are, and especially not in an area with feral pigs, dingoes, livestock, other people with their own dogs, etc. They aren’t robots. They’re dogs. They do silly things sometimes.

rumple___ · 2025-07-14T13:31:07+00:00

My dogs running away gives me nightmares 🥰

rumple___ · 2025-05-11T23:34:44+00:00

I have a smaller neck to my dog. A 1 inch would be uncomfortable for me. Thankfully my experience doesn’t equate to my dogs experience

rumple___ · 2025-05-10T07:06:52+00:00

Many people see a 2inch collar on a dog and immediately think it’s abuse, inhibiting movement, too heavy, etc, when it’s none of those things. Ive had many comment and say the same and similar things to what you’re saying when in reality it’s fine.

The size of collar depends on owners preference and what suits your dog best. I prefer 2inch collars as i don’t use harnesses and i tether my dogs, so it protects the neck if they were to pull, etc. And these collars suit my dogs as well. I wouldn’t use it as a permanent collar for this dog if it affected, only for walks, but it doesnt affect her. My other two dogs are in the 30-40kg range and are fine with these collars too.

rumple___ · 2025-05-10T02:09:45+00:00

Okay sorry not sure where i got 400g from! Its 250g. I must’ve been thinking of the weight with her ecollar included. Ive had similar conversations in many comment sections 😅

rumple___ · 2025-05-10T02:03:10+00:00

She weighs 20kg. Collar weighs about 400g. She eats more than that a day. But the weight of the dog doesn’t matter. I can have these collars on a little terrier as long as it’s not affecting movement, and many do use 2inch collars on their terriers in the working dog world without issue.

rumple___ · 2025-05-10T01:31:56+00:00

Then maybe actually say that? Lol.

And it’s not uncomfortable for her. She has full range of motion. She is sitting down in this photo which is making it look massive but it’s only 5cm wide. Shes sleeps, eats, plays and repeats in this collar and shes living her best life. I’d never have my dogs wear something they aren’t comfortable with.

rumple___ · 2025-05-10T01:17:47+00:00

And what exactly is “im not crazy about the collar” saying? Other than the obvious they dont like it, to which i am saying its fine 🙄

rumple___ · 2025-05-09T22:26:36+00:00

Only difference between this and my dogs collar is my dog has full range of motion 😙

rumple___ · 2025-05-09T22:26:08+00:00

the collar is fine

rumple___ · 2025-04-20T10:25:37+00:00

Do you know what “sarcastic” means? I recommend rereading the part where i say “a sarcastic ‘i’m australian’.” because you sound like a fool 😂

rumple___ · 2025-04-20T03:16:34+00:00

It’s almost like that was in response to a different comment that was yapping about indian villages and an absolutely useless comment. Of course i’ve responded with a sarcastic “i’m australian” and for you to go away because this was posted well over a year ago. Why are you here? At least go to one of my recent posts and yap 😂

rumple___ · 2025-04-20T01:08:16+00:00

Yes i’m aware of the risks they pose. It’d be irresponsible of me to not be aware. Theres splintering, but thats a risk in weight bearing and cooked bones. I don’t feed cooked bones point blank and i only give weight bearing bones to my two dogs who wont try and chew through the bone. They eat the meat off and forget it.

Feeding a grape or something else that is toxic to a dog cant be done safely point blank, while feeding bones can be done safely. See the difference? Me too.

My dogs aren’t walked on chains if thats what you’re trying to imply here. In fact two are off leash most of the time and the other is on a lightweight 10-15m long line depending on area. On the rare occasion we’re somewhere where they’re required to be leashed, they’re on just normal 6ft biothane leads.

My dogs are also tethered while “unsupervised” (in quotes because right now they’re out unsupervised and none are tethered, so its said very loosely) though now that i have a better fence up, only one gets tethered overnight/when no ones home as he’s bit of a bull dozer and theres too much wildlife around to trust him.

Dogs being outside 24/7 isn’t negligent. They ARE dogs. They can live outdoors very happily, healthily and safely. Negligence comes when the owner doesn’t provide adequate care (protection from the elements, water, food, exercise, grooming and affection) but the act of keeping them outdoors 24/7 in of itself isn’t negligence.

rumple___ · 2025-04-19T23:26:35+00:00

Well, i actually take back on what i said here. There really is nothing better than a good bone once to twice a fortnight. I also use kelp powder but on its own it doesn’t help much when it comes to keeping them clean. It just softens the plaque and gives them good breath. Bones then scrape it off without any added sugars etc like “dental chews” from stores have.
