Dogs and fencing ... say "no" to electric fences with a high escape rate, plus other critters and humans can get IN and harm your dog.

How secure are electric fences?

A survey of 974 dog owners asked how their dogs were confined to the yard, whether they had escaped. The results showed that an electronic fence was the LEAST effective method of containing a dog: 44% of dogs contained by one had escaped. Dogs were less likely to have escaped from a tether (27%) or from a see-through fence (e.g. chain link or slatted wood) (23%) or a privacy fence that is not see-through (also 23%). Escape rates were not associated with how dogs were trained on them.

Behind many Aussie pedigrees ....

HOF CH Jone’s Reddy Teddy CDX OTDdsc SCH HA was born in 1973 to Davies Ginger Red and sired by Piz’s Little Joe. As Terry Martin recalls, he was “owned and trained by Cathy Jones in Colorado. He came onto the ASCA trial scene with a bang about its third year, dark liver reds were very rare and the talent of a low heeling cow dog who would work other stock with finesse and eye was amazing. He was very territorial, a controversial dog of that decade whose progeny made their marks in many breeding programs.”

Our Story

Samilyn began as a love affair between myself, my daughters, and our Australian Shepherds. My girls are grown now but 2 of us continue to enjoy showing, breeding, training, and trialing our dogs around the country. Our Aussies are titled in conformation, obedience, rally, herding, agility, dock diving, flyball, trick dog, therapy work and a few other things. We love the versatility of this breed! My youngest daughter also has an Irish Wolfhound, we have a Basenji, and each of us has an Icelandic Sheepdog. Several of our dogs are Service Dogs, which has been critical to our quality of life.
