Best Fence for Dog Owners

When installing a fence, it's important to keep in mind the member of your family who will spend the most time in your yard: man's best friend, your fur baby, your four-legged pal. Here are a few things to consider as a dog owner: 

  • Functionality: can the fence keep your dogs in your yard? 
  • Visibility: will your dog enjoy seeing out onto the street from your yard? 
  • Aesthetic: does the fence meet your dogs needs while also being something desirable for your property?

At Certified Fencing, we've rounded up the top three options for fencing for dog owners

1) Chain link

Chain link fences are a popular option among dog owners, especially for owners who opt to install a dog run. Chain link fences are relatively affordable and allow your dog to see out onto sidewalks, where other dogs or people may interest them. These fences are fairly secure and easy to maintain, but they do not afford much privacy. 

2) Aluminum or wrought iron

Although pricier, aluminum and wrought iron fencing shares many of the advantages and disadvantages of chain link fences; they allow your dog to see more of its surroundings but do not offer much privacy in your yard. However, aluminum and wrought iron fences are often viewed as more high-end than chain link fences, so if the aesthetic of the fence is important to you, this may be the fence for you!

3) Cedar: best of both worlds

Lastly, cedar is a popular and versatile option for pet owners. Cedar fences offer more privacy to your space, and an idea that is rapidly gaining popularity is creating a window for your pup to be able to see out. There are many affordable options for acrylic bubbles to be installed in cedar fences, which is a delightful and creative solution to creating a situation where both privacy and your dog's ability to see out has been preserved. And, if you ask us, seeing a happy dog's face through a dog window never fails to brighten our day. 

There are a lot of options to consider when choosing a fence, and even more factors at play when you have a dog to consider as well. For more information or for fencing services in the Boise, Nampa, and Meridian areas, contact us or give us a call at (208) 449-2040 today!
