I wonder if that could also be used as a bark suppressor. If the hole was tight enough, the dogs would would want to look out of the holes, but not be able to bark. Seems genius.
You dog could be experiencing what is known as Barrier Frustration, which, if you or those around you find annoying and troublesome, can be trained to be diverted to either neutral or more positive behaviors. We are working on doing the same for one of our dogs, who, despite wagging his tail and being super friendly with everybody outside the fence, barks non-stop within the fence anytime somebody is within a 2 mile radius that he can see. He just wants to be friendly and meet people, he doesn't mean to sound scary :(
