Fence Ideas for Dogs

9 years ago

Hello,

I have a .5 acre lot with neighbors on each side. We are debating whether we should get an electric fence, vinyl or iron fence. What do you think looks the classiest in a nice neighborhood?

My only fear about a electric fence are coyotes...my dogs aren't very big

Thank you!

Hard to say since all of the above come in different styles, depends upon your house style, landscaping, area where you live, etc.

Ditto. Could you please post a photo of your house and area?

This is a new build so there isn't any landscaping yet.

If you live in an HOA, you may want to check to see if there are architectural rules on fences.

hepalumb I apologize for not being clear re pics. I meant photos that show your house and the neighborhood style. That we could make recommendations as you asked.
