Thanks, all. for your kind condolences.
Rick, we did have the wireless fence. But ol' Toby, being a bit incorrigible and ever the free spirit, figured out that if he got a running start could blast thru it, take the lick and be free. Then he would stand outside the perimeter as if to say to us "C'mon, that wasn't so bad...now let's go have some fun." LOL
We live in a somewhat rural arae with little traffic that is bounded on three sides by creeks. We are quite a ways from a high traffic area (where he was killed) and Toby was never known to wander in that direction preferring the woods. He was almost always visible and under voice command or chilling at our house or a neighbors'. He appeared to always be aware of the limited vehicle traffic in our community.
I have beat up on myself for his death, but given his nature and spirit, I know he was happier being free.
