You are looking for any fix other than the common sence one.
No one said the dog can't be part of the family and have some freedom to run around.
You sound like you are expecting her to just use her intelligence to just hang around the house and not get into trouble and if she does the next option is to flick her off to someone else, (who will likely kennel her anyway) or wait til she really screws up and then shoot her.
