Stormin 4,458 #1 Posted February 10, 2022 Been dog proofing the garden yesterday while we still have some garden left. Erected a fence between it and the yard. I did have some help from Nell, the pup. Rather large pup now. Driving the posts in was fun. When I swung the mallet, she'd jump up and try to grab it and push the post with her paws. The hole for the post by the house proved a bit of a problem. A piece of the original drive was still there under the soil. Four inch thick. That I attacked with a large chisel and lump hammer. After about an hour and a half and an aching wrist, I managed to get through concrete and the post in. Then fitted the last panels. Not bad for an afternoons work. I only collected the posts in the morning. Fitted the gate first thing this morning. 3 Alan, Maxwell-8 and ranger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jarrovian 237 #3 Posted February 12, 2022 Many years ago we had a German Shepard with a similar fence at the bottom of our garden ( which backs onto a railway line ) when he was a pup he disappeared every day ending up next door and Sylvia used to ask for him back. Unknown to us some of the bottom nails had rotted, we watched him one day, look around then with a paw he moved the board and clambered through we used to find him sitting eating biscuits next door 1 Stormin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
