Put up a low voltage hot wire.
Your dog will get a small shock and stay away from the fence. They can even hear the electricity in the wire.
It's not cruel since it is low voltage, and your dog will remain safely in the yard and out of the street.

Get an electric fence kit and run a wire around the top of the fence at a height the dog will hit it when he jumps so it'll give him a mild shock. This can be expensive though and the dog may simply learn to jump higher.
Tying him up will keep him from jumping the fence, but it won't teach him not to jump it.

Have you noticed that most business's have the tops of their fence curved inward? I'm not speaking of the ones with razor wire. The ones you see turned inward usually has a guard dog on duty at night. The curvature of the fence keeps the dog from jumping. Call a local fence company and tell them your problem and ask them about adding such an extension to your fence.

Once a dog learns to get out, whether it is jumping the fence or digging under, you have a major problem. The best advice anyone can give you without hurting your dog, is get a higher fence. Hitting or tieing up your dog will not work. It will only afraid or kupset them and want to get out more.

Our dog did the same thing, so we got her a lead. It's like a clothesline with a leash attached by a pulley system. It allowed her to run around the yard but not to jump the fence.
It worked for several months, long enough for us to get a higher fence installed.

The dog always needs to be supervised when indoors. Every time the dog goes to the toilet in the house, and he is not caught and corrected, the behaviour is reinforced and he will think it is acceptable behaviour.
Learn here https://tr.im/05juU
• Take your dog on lead to the area where you would like him to relieve himself
• Use the word “toilet” when the dog is going to the toilet so he learns to associate the word with the action
• Reward with high praise and a treat reward so this behaviour is keenly repeated by the dog
• If the dog tries to jump and play with you ignore this behaviour until the dog focuses on sniffing the ground and starting to cue for the signs of relieving himself
• Remember to be patient – as this may take time
• If consistent, in weeks to a couple of months you should be able to do without the lead and your dog should be able to relieve himself on cue when hearing the command “toilet”
As prevention is better than cure; get in the habit of closing doors and not allowing your dog free access to areas that are unsupervised. NB: Baby dividers between rooms and hallways can be very effective to keep dog out. It is interesting to note that carpeted rooms are attractive to puppies as they hold the scent particularly well.
Make sure your cleaning the urine up completely! There are a number of excellent cleaning products that you can now purchase from pet stores that eliminate the smell of urine or feces. If the pup can smell any urine or feces, remembering it has a much stronger sense of smell than us; it will encourage him to go again on the same spot.
If you are to catch your dog in the act simply give the “a-ah” command. Pick the dog up and place outdoors or on paper so that he can finish his deed there. Remember that if you do not catch the dog within 3 seconds of an undesirable act he will have no comprehension of what you are correcting him for. This may worsen his toileting habits as the dog will learn to be deceptive as he will now want to hide away.

first of all,what breed do you have and are they likely to be jumpers? Dogs that can't jump can't learn how to jump! a labrador has webbed feet, making climbing a fence simple. huskies also have thick fur on their feet making a fence a piece of cake! you need to understand the breed you own. GOOD LUCK! but please don't be mean!!!!!
