I'm at a fork in the road and need some advice.

In November 2011, I bought a husky puppy a named her Luna. At the time, I was living with my parents still and they had a miniature schnauzer. The dogs got along great as Luna was growing. 

In July of last year, I bought my first house and moved Luna in with me and my girlfriend a couple months after we got settled. However, since she's moved in I've been having a lot of trouble.

My girlfriend and I both work full time jobs, which means Luna is home alone for about 9 hours a day during the week. As soon as I get home I play with her and take her out on a run.

In the time she is home alone, she likes to get into things most likely due to boredom. She started chewing up some shoes and pulling stuff off the counter.  I could deal with all this as I know I just needed to do some obedience training with her, which had worked for the most part. 

My big problem now is she is jumping over the gate when no one is home and running around the neighborhood. My gate is 5.5 ft high. She jumps on top of it like she's a cat, then jumps down and takes off. I installed a second gate closer to the backyard that is about 6.5d ft tall and solid. The first night she dug out the gravel where I had the gate mounted and got out. I've since blocked that hole, but today I got a call at work that she was out again. I don't know how she got out this time. 

I don't know what to do. I can't afford to keep trying to contain her with new obstacles, and there is no way for one of us to be home all the time. This is only a problem when we leave. I live near a busy road by a high school and my biggest fear is she runs out of the neighborhood and gets hit by a car.

I'm at my wits end. Should I find a new home for her where she won't be left alone all day? Or am I jumping the gun here. 

Any advice is appreciated, thank you for reading.

My dog has begun to jump the boundaries of my property, possibly running off. Need advice on how to stop her without scaring
