Dog Left Loose Outside Overnight

Question
QUESTION: My dog's diet has not changed, nothing has changed or is different everything has been the same for a long time.  Ever since I got him he will not stay home no matter what I do.  He lives outside and every time I go outside I make sure he stays right with me but if I leave him out over night, witch I have to, or the deer will destroy things, he wanders off and gets in trouble, so I need to do something in way of training, can not put out money for any equipment...

ANSWER: Leaving your dog loose, outside, overnight is not appropriate care. Part of being a responsible owner is to provide safe confinement, adequate housing, high quality food and clean water.


Here is some additional information from: http://www.anticruelty.org/site/epage/36966_576.htm
Too many well-meaning pet owners expose their pets to needless danger and tragedy because they allow their animals to run loose in their neighborhood. Animals running "free" are not free at all, they are in danger. Because we have domesticated dogs and cats, they depend upon us for everything, including making sure that they remain as safe as possible. Furthermore, many cities have ordinances against loose animals.

The Dangers:
Dogs and cats running loose in the neighborhood are exposed to many dangers every day, including, but not limited to:
automobiles (the #1 killer of loose dogs and cats)
becoming lost
being stolen
abuse by people
fights with other animals
diseases
poisons (including antifreeze and rat-bait)
extreme weather (winter and summer)
lack of proper food and clean water
injury or death from belts or rotating blades in car engines (cats often crawl under car hoods to escape the cold in winter, dying when the car is started)
The Preventions
The easiest way of protecting your animals from these hazards is to avoid them altogether.

Answer
I am unable to assist you. I believe a dog left outside, loose, unattended and able to chase deer and other wildlife is where your issue begins. You have stated that you don't have the ability to provide containment and you won't bring the dog inside due to deer being in your yard. You need to find an expert that thinks your dog should be outside, loose and unattended overnight.

In the meantime, perhaps you should investigate a way to keep the deer away from your property. Here is a link regarding that. http://www.deer-departed.com/deer-repellent-recipes.html
