Bunk is a sweet, loving yellow lab from Plymouth, MN. He has lived with his dad his whole 7 years, and they have always been best buds. Last year, Bunk got a mom when his dad got married. At first it was hard for Bunk to share his dad’s attention, but now he loves being part of a family of three.

Bunk and his dad used to live in Minneapolis, where Bunk had a small fenced-in yard. When they all moved to Plymouth, the yard was much bigger but his parents worried that Bunk wouldn’t know what to do without a physical fence. They kept a close eye on him for the first couple weeks, but Bunky followed his nose and ended up in the neighbor’s yard a couple times.

A physical fence would have blocked a beautiful pond view, so the family decided on a DogWatch hidden fence. They worried about Bunk learning a new skill at 7 years old. Could he figure out where he needs to be without a physical boundary? But he picked up the new rules within a few days of training. Now he stays in the un-blocked yard, even when his dad crosses the street to get the mail.
