Warning to foxes- this yard is protected by a suburban farmdog

Well, this is a new experience for me. I just took Chandler out for
his mid-afternoon "bladder break", and he suddenly focused on the
pines that separate our yard from the neighbor's. It turns out our
local red fox was coming through right at that moment-it took one look
at Chan, turned around and hightailed it away!

I can't say I blame it, Chandler was all puffed up with his tail raised and hackles up.
He was also straining forward on his leash and making harsh excited
breathing noises.

Maybe the fox will learn to look before trying to cross into this
yard. :)
