Man repairs fence to contain dog, hilarity ensues seconds later

Sometimes, even a job done well is a failure. In a video posted in July 2014 by YouTube user rgraves62002, a man appears to be admiring the result of a day's work in his backyard.

“Yep, just completed fixing this fence,” the man says as his camera sweeps back and forth. “Pretty proud of it, I'd have to say. Try to keep Stella in the yard.”

At this point, a large dog — presumably Stella — bounds into view, runs to one end of the fence and jumps right over it, almost without effort. There is a perfectly timed comedic pause, then the man says, “Dammit.”

In the comments section of the video, the original poster explains why he thought the fence would be high enough to contain Stella: “Before I made the fence, I had Stella jump a baby gate inside and when she stopped jumping it I added six inches (15.2 centimeters).” In a classic ‘blame the dog' moment he adds, “She set me up!”

What did the man eventually do with the useless fence? Another comment from rgraves62002 says it is now serving as “a treehouse with a zip-line for my grandson!”

  1. One of my dogs – a Shepherd mix – was often escaping from the yard and I couldn’t figure out hoe. One day he was picked up by the dogcatcher and brought home. I showed the man my yard and he decided that my 4 foot fence was not tall enough to stop the dog. I paid over $1,000 to get a 6 foot stretch of fence put in. Riley never escaped after that.

  2. I took this dog in my profile pix to a kennel for a week and told the lady, she will excape, you must put her in a space with walls and a ceiling..,the lady took her to the back and then returned and said…, i know what I’m doing…, I walked to the front door and opened it and my dog walked in and I said I dont think you do…

  3. I spent $650 on an electric dog fence thingy for my 5 acres…, lasted all but 2 seconds and 1 learned to jump through and yelp and run free all day, the others soon followed…

  4. Why do you folks post stories where you have to click on it, to click on the page to click on the video? Just post the video? Damn, are you that desperate for advertising revenue?
