We Have Privacy
 

I am so thrilled! Look what we had installed Wednesday & Thursday....I am in heaven!

With four yorkies this fence is a godsend.
Behind us lives a german shepard...the dogs would run back & forth along the chain link fence and I was always paranoid that one of mine were going to either be trampled or have a head on collision with another. There had been times that I'd see one of them roll and I know Lucky came back limping (just a short while) a time or two. So we don't have to worry about that anymore.
One the long fenced side is a home for slightly mentally challenged kids. One teenage boy would constantly come out when the dogs were out to see & pet them, but the dogs would always go barking crazy at him. That wouldn't phase him and he still would put his hands on our side without a care about being scratched or nipped. We were always having to go to the fence to back the dogs off and remind him to wait til the dogs calmed down before trying to pet them. Whew, don't have to worry about that anymore either; and neither do his caretakers. They are equally excited to see our fence go up. Made their job easier they told us.
On the short side, behind the garage lives a rat terrier. They also would all bark, though this neighbor has his dog trained to come when called, so that wasn't so much of a problem.
Whatever the case, I am so thankful to finally have our privacy fence up. Early this spring, I told hubby, "I want a privacy fence for my birthday." It's 3months late in coming (and not really my bday gift)..........but well worth the wait!!!!!:D

Pic #4 - :confused:Lexie & Lucky trying to figure out WHY they can hear the neighbors & his dog, but they just can't see them.:confused: It was kind of comical to see them so bewildered:p

that is fantastic & i am sure this will put your mind at ease! now you wont have to worry when they are out..:D:aimeeyork

Congrats on your new fence. I'm sure you feel safer too.:)

Oh...very nice and what freedom for the fur butts!! Congrats!

Looks great! I wish we could put a fence up in our backyard, but it is against the covenents of the the association.

That is great!! All three sides had something worrisome in the other yards! Heaven, right?!

Nice fence... Im so jealous right now :) I just moved into a small house. Nice size back yard, however, one side of the fence is chain link (wooded on the other sides :confused:) So, none the less, Im working hard to get a fence built for that one side....

You must be thrilled, cause I would do anything for full privacy in my backyard :D

Not only do I not have to worry so much when they are out, but I can let them out ANY TIME they want. I used to feel I had to wait to let them out when neighbors/dogs were out sometimes to avoid the hassle of quieting barking dogs.

I felt the same way....jealous of others with the privacy fence. Half of the back of our property was already fenced with a privacy fence...you can see it in the second picture posted. Finally I got my wish and we were able to do the rest of our yard. Your day will come :D

Good for you!! The fence looks great! I'm sure you have a peace of mind...I wish I could get a fence!! The girls would love it!

Lucky you Im jealous, Thats what I want so bad, but it would cost us alot to put around 5 acres. But I wish.

And I thought my yard was big.. WOW... that is a yard!

For LuckyLady.. you have a wonderful fence up.. I also have a wood fence (Not as pretty as yours) and I love it for my babies. It keeps them safe. Congratulations.

It looks great! I know its going to take a lot of worry off of you, the babies will have so much more fun now and so will you!:)

Oh man, I want a fence too!!! On a mission now.........trying to talk hubby into getting a fence again esp we are not getting investment home....and oh yea, I just find out I got promoted!! Yeah!!

Reminds me of the show Home Improvement :p

I'm jealous, I want my own house a fenced in back yard.:rolleyes:
