May 31st, 2016Fun and Stylish Ideas for Your Dog Run

With summer approaching, it is important to ensure that your fluffy friend is getting a good dose of fresh air. We know that you’re busy, so to ensure that your pooch gets some time outdoors, but stays safe in the backyard, you may want to consider a dog run. To steer away from a dog run that creates an eyesore in your backyard oasis, you can consider these practical and attractive designs.

Try the Basic Chainlink

Chainlink dog runs are the most common dog run fencing materials, as they are affordable, sturdy and readily available. They are also quite beneficial because your pup will be able to see everything that's going on outside, and you will be able to see everything that's going on inside, adding a safety factor to the dog run.

Step It Up with Wood or Ornate Metal

The wood or ornate metal option has a timeless and high end look that can be admired by homeowners to come. The trick to this type of fencing is distance. The distance between the panels has to be wide enough for your pup to see out of, and for you to see in, but narrow enough that the dog can’t slip out when you're not looking!

Best of Both Worlds: Coated Wire Fencing & Wood Posts

This option is the perfect balance of function and visual appeal. Sturdy enough to keep in most dog breeds, and more visually appealing than chainlink, a coated wire fence with wood posts is fantastic option for your dog run. Your pup will be able to see out of this fence just as clearly as the chainlink. It’s the best of both worlds!

Don’t forget that the most important factor in creating a dog run is placement. The enclosure should include shade, easy access, and plenty of room for your dog to run, play, and do their business!
