Siberian Escape Artist

We have a peculiar dog.  Just like people, I think all dogs have a unique personality.  Our dog Canyon, a Siberian Husky, does not like to be confined to a kennel.  If it were up to him, he would be free to roam the many fields Eagle Mountain has to offer.  In fact, many times, he has done just that.  He figures out how to escape and then sprints off.  Luckily he has always come back.  I'd like to think it is because he likes our family so much, but it is more likely due to the fact that his food bowl is here.

When we first got our kennel, Canyon immediately went to work finding the weak points.  He has dug through under several places, including places I put chicken wire down to reinforce.  He has undone the links in the chain link fence and shoved his way through.  And he has gotten out over the top.  We always figured he jumped, because a few times from the corner of her eye, Jess saw him leaping over the top.  Today, we captured on film just how he does it.  Leaping alone would certainly attest to his athletic prowess, but this method of escape shows off athleticism as well as the ability to assess and overcome obstacles.
