but our two cavaliers have no fear of anything. We let Lady go off leash because at least she has enough fear to stay out of trouble. We had a bald eagle in the yard a few days ago, and we could get coyotes, etc. Usually see deer every day.

We fixed up a doggie door in the basement slider door that goes to the back yard fenced area for the dogs. That works out great. We still take them for walks, though, too.
