Cassie, The pasture is fenced, the gardens fenced, gates, et.. the entire 9 yards. Have you ever watched a deer clear a 5 and 6 ft fence. At my parents they jump the fence and a water drainage ditch all in one leap. The deer clear out when neighbors around my parents illegally poach.

That's probably going to send them elsewhere. I have two dogs and they were too much work to handle but I was able to fence the area behind my house and I can now open the door to put them outside and it has made a huge difference. I live on ten acres and nothing was fenced before this so it was a huge hassle because they would run off.
I completely understand.
Reporting your neighbors will help. It's illegal to feed the deer here and my neighbors don't feed them so they are not a huge problem but still create devastation when they do come through and the garden gate is open.
Good luck.

Cassie, I can't be tied down by a dog, their training, and their needs. Between helping my parents, their appointments, my own, working, and my chickens I do not have time to take care of a dog. Especially on a farm. I am done with dogs, especially rescue dogs. Before the Catahoula (who the owners lied about her age said she was 7 or 8; when her papers came she was 11) there were 3 rescue dogs, 2 pekes and a shitz shu that were supposedly house broken. Seven years of diapers on their pee'ers and diapers off because they'd come in and pee in the house. No more dogs until I have the time to get a puppy and train it myself. I am done with rescues and needy dogs.I reported the people who keep 3 buckets of feed out for them, that attracts them here.Cathryn rainbowsilkiesTM in Michigan
