There may be many reasons why dogs walk on the roof, and the most common reason is curiosity. Dogs are naturally active, full of interest in novelty, and want to explore when they see roofs or other high places. In addition, dogs may go to the roof because they hear a certain sound or smell and want to get close to find the source.
In addition, some dogs are naturally fond of crawling and can climb high as easily as flexible kittens. This kind of dog is usually called a mountain climbing dog, such as the local Guizhou Eagle Dragon Dog and Red Biao Riding.

Walking the dog on the roof is not only dangerous, but also may cause a series of other problems. First of all, the process of dogs walking on the roof may scare birds and other wild animals on the roof and cause accidents. Secondly, dogs walking on the roof are likely to knock over the tiles or bricks on the roof and cause damage to the house. Crucially, if a dog gets on the roof but doesn't know how to get down, it will be trapped on the roof, leading to malnutrition or death.

In order to avoid the risk of dogs walking on the roof, we need to take measures to protect our pets.

If you are not sure whether the iron fence or safety fence is suitable for your house, you can consult a professional to help you choose the best protective measures.
