How did you do the plexiglass between the posts? Or just one solid sheet, maybe cut down, to go across the entire thing?

I would love to see pics because I am really trying to figure out what to do.
Personally I'd use one solid piece-easier to do, remove, and less "invasive installation" for a renter etc.
Here's a couple images I found...

You might find a lot more designs if you look at child safety more than dog safety but I think it's the same deal pretty much...

You have to scroll down on this one to see the indoor version for a stair case with for a child-LOL I think this is more to keep things from being dropped but would work great for a dog too... Balcony and Deck Safety: Opie & Carson Carpentry - Custom Plexiglass Balcony Barrier For Cats

For those using the roll of plastic mesh-is it really that strong and would also hold up again a dog pulling (scratching with paws) or chewing on it? I'd really consider it as long as it was a durable-both for price and it looks a lot easier to install/remove.
