Customer Question

Our 4 month old Border Terrier runs out the door and finds holes in the fence and is in danger of losing his life since we're near two major arteries of traffic in Berkeley? What can we do?

A 4 month old dog should be walked on a leash, to be properly house and leash trained. When he is in the house, keep him on a leash attached to someone's belt loop. This will teach him not to run off. In the meantime, so you can use the yard once he is trained, I recommend a thorough repair of your fencing.
