Peeka Boo I See You! Donating Member | Aggghhhh So Mad!! I Have been patiently waiting for months now to get a fence in my front yard i need it desperatly Peeka will no longer poop on a leash and is pooping in my house and Daisy is now running off It is such a pain to try to take them out on leashes because i have my 2 year old who either gets into everything when i'm out or he is out with me and is running off and the dogs take twice the time on leashes. I am so irritated now because i thought i was going to get it on the 5th and now we can't . I have tried searching everywhere to find the lowest price but it will cost us $600.00 to do it ourselves aaggghhhh i hate this! Sorry i just have to vent. why the heck is chain link so expensive!! Plus i have to buy an extra 42 feet of fencing because i am over by 12 ft and they won't just sell me the 12 ft SORRY AGAIN I JUST REALLY NEED TO VENT THANKS FOR LISTENING TO ME!!

| You just go ahead and vent, this is the place to do it. We've all had frustrating times but it sounds like you're having a doosie. I don't know why it's so expensive & it's crappy that you have to buy so much extra. My sister had a 20X40 ft chain link dog run installed at her house for $1200. Two days later her 3 dogs (Boxer, Shepherd & Border Collie) got out and the Boxer & Shepherd were shot by the farmer down the road when they got into his chicken & hog pens. The Border Collie made it home. Boxer & BC went over it, the Shepherd went under it. So they have a dog run that they can't use.

| I know what you mean, we had to buy extra when we put the fence up in Florida...they just don't sell short rolls! Is there something temporary that you can do to contain them until you get your fence like put them out in an x-pen or something? |

Peeka Boo I See You! Donating Member | no Peeka has to have room to run and poop or he won't and he can jump the baby gates (anything under 4 ft) because i was tempted to go buy a few and put them up outside. I am so desperate i thought about chicken wire but it's all to expensive for a temporary fix. i have been crying and upset all day! I know this might be petty to a lot of people but it is something i really need for the saftey of my dogs and kids that way my 2 yr old could come out to and not run off. Why the heck don't they make them in smaller rolls dang it's so dumb to

| Hey everyone has that right ... no need to apologize here! I dont know what your yard looks like but I know the people across from me years ago did put a rope up between two trees and then a pulley with a rope so the dog could run back and forth but not enough rope to get anywhere near the street. Chicken Wire for a temp fix is expensive! I did that at my old house and OUCH unless you can catch it on sale.... Are there any junk yards or recycle places around? Maybe they have some?

| I wish that I had a way to help you. I know how frustrated you are. I can only imagine how it is with them on leashes and your 2yr old helping out. How about (I'm not being funny, I'm a grandmother who has done this before) an ex-pen out front for the 2 yr old when you are on leash duty? Here, this is for you tonight....
