Hi Melissa,

Welcome to Go Corgi! I have a 10 1/2 mth old Chloe (the black head tri) and Emma is 7 yrs.

Know what you mean about easier said than done when trying to retrieve your corgi! When my Girls are outside they have OYD (outside yard deafness) - amazing how many corgi have this LOL. I gave up and put in an electric wireless fence with collars for The Girls. There is no wires to bury underground and you can adjust the frequency to the size yard you have up to an acre. The transmitter unit sets in my kitchen and when The Girls go outside I put their collars on them. Takes only a few days training and now they are safe in the yard.

This was my best option but others here can help you with good training tips if a fence isn't what you want/need for Gimli. Maybe your Gimli only has a mild case of OYD and with a little work he can overcome this corgi problem.
