Don't get me started on fencing, lol. I have a fenced in back yard.
It works well to let all the chis go potty except Ginger. She gets
out of the smallest holes, lol. I had my fence put up by
professionals, but it didn't do the job, so what I did was dig a
trench and bury the bottom of the fence. Probelm solved right?? NOT!
Ginger goes through the small space between the gate and the post!
lol. Finally, I put a small rebar in this space (tall enough that she
couldn't get over) She still got out of there! I gave up, now the
back yard stands empty and my chis go to potty on the front concrete
porch and then I sweep and use a water hose to wash it all off.
Ginger is 5 pounds. Dinah is only 3, but she doesn't go through.
Basically Ginger is just my little trouble maker, lol.
Latice seems like a possiblity. IT has gotten too late in the year
now, but I may have to give that one a try next summer...thanks for
the hint!
