Go Back to Wolfdog Containment Solutions Explore more types of fencing used to safely and securely house our wolfdogs !
 We used 4 gauge-52" combo panels by Behlen Manufacturing, sold at farm supply store, they're 52" x 16'....stacked one half panel (cut the long way) over full panel to equal about 6' high (with overlap). Heavy duty 2" nail-in staples were used to attach panels to posts. |
Here are some pictures of our high security pen done for our new guy (seen lurking in the background of some of the pics). This 38' x 40' pen cost just under $500 with 2-dog houses, hasp, lock, etc. Oh, posts are all concreted in. The only downside to this fence that we've found, aside from needing a truck to haul the panels because they're so long, is that people arms can go into it and canine heads can stick out of it...solution is a perimeter fence.
Hope this helps with your project. |
 Dig proofing is half panels (cut the long way) attached with 9-ga hog rings. |
 We chose not to use hot wire at the bottom because the previous owner said the new fellow has a strong aversion to it (so do I). |
 This is the corner of the bottom dig-guard. Note the overlap of panels for extra strength. |

 Here you can see the angle of the top lean-in arms. |
 The 2' lean-ins are doubled bolted onto the posts. Lighter gauge fence wired up top and two strands of hot wire up top. |
