Dog & Pet Fencing Menifee, CA

What is the difference between dog fencing and pet fencing?

There is very little actual difference between fencing designated specifically for dogs versus other household pets like cats or potbelly pigs. Pet fences just refer more generally to containment solutions built for any manner of animal requiring a safely enclosed space.

What size pet fence do I need?

Fence height and length requirements depend on the type, size, energy level and escape risk of your particular pets. We customize each containment plan for the specific animal’s needs after an on-site consultation. Generally, a 4-6 foot fence works for average dogs.

What is the best material for a dog fence?

Durable wood, vinyl, galvanized steel and aluminum pet fences stand up best to regular animal contact. Avoid flimsy chicken wire or debris screen fencing inadequate for keeping animals contained. We use only the strongest materials properly installed to prevent climbing, digging or damage.

Do invisible dog fences work well?

Invisible or underground electronic fences using unpleasant static correction to keep pets inside a boundary have reliability issues and are illegal in some areas. Physical barriers like privacy fences prove safer and more effective for containment.

Should I choose privacy or chain link fencing for pets?

Solid privacy fencing prevents pets from excitedly observing stimuli outside the secure area that may incite escape attempts. But chain link still allows adequate vision while maintaining strength and affordability. It depends on your specific needs and budget.

What do I do if my dog keeps digging under the fence?

Digging barriers made of wire mesh or concrete can be installed beneath fence lines to prevent escape by burrowing. Also helpful – placing large rocks or thorny bushes along the perimeter inside the enclosure.

Can dogs climb wood fences?

Yes, without preventative measures, clever canine climbers can scale a standard wood perimeter. Anti-climb mesh or metal brackets attached along the top portion deter this behavior. Proper fence height is also key – a minimum 6 feet is best.

Are electric pet fences safe?

Electric fences using occasional low-voltage pulse corrections can be used humanely and safely as long as proper precautions are taken. But close supervision is required, and it may not guarantee absolute containment for all pets.

Why does my dog bite and pull at the fence?

This destructive behavior usually stems from frustration, boredom or excess energy. Make sure your pet gets adequate walks and play. Also give them durable chew toys inside the fence area to redirect biting and pulling attempts on the offending barrier itself.
