If you have a dog and a yard but no fence and don't care to walk Fido at

or in nasty weather, attach a long lead to a stake (not a steak!) in the

lead to the collar and let the dog go do its thing. Irresponsible and
lazy
pet owners irritate the hell out of me.

Except for the fact that many states have or are considering
making it illegal to stake a dog. It's illegal in TX, at least.

Sounds like a trend toward less dogs, or a gold mine for fence companies.
