It didn't occur to me that a dog would litterally jump into an electric fence at fullspeed....but come to think of it, mine would.
and yeah with little siblings electric fence certainly wouldn't be a good idea.
Anyhow.....
I'm glad to read that training her has made her improve! That is awesome.
I still don't know if a harness would work to tying her out...but you could try spraying Bitter apple all over it....hmmm...

I walk her, then tie her out for a little while. When she comes inside shes totally calm,
and goes straight over to get a drink then lays down and naps. Whats not 'totally fine' about
that?
I figured I was doing good. And she bolts on her tie out. If her toy goes to far, she runs
at it, then gets jerked back. I say "stop!" and she stops, but normally I tie her out because I have
somthing to do INSIDE and can't watch her, which means if she bolts, I'm not there to say 'Stop!'.
