Susan Brandi Smith Webboard User Reg: 08-14-2007 Posts: 92 Loc: Offline	Hi, I am hoping someone can give me some advice on what type of fence to get. My GSD is 4 1/2 and we have a weird side yard with a retaining wall and a angled fence where the side gate is. If i was to add fence to make the gate longer it would not look very good. So, I was thinking about the other options. Electric, Wireless, Invisible. And of coarse something that wont cost an arm and leg. Any advice?? Thanks...

If she jumps up on the wall she can jump over that wooden fence to the top of another retaining wall. Make sense?? Thanks, any suggestions would be appreciated. (Carolyn, beautiful dogs.)

Susan Brandi Smith Webboard User Reg: 08-14-2007 Posts: 92 Loc: Offline	yes, i want to make it taller, but the gate is already over 6 feet. I think its gonna look funny with a taller piece there on the angle. The decorative piece is an interesting idea. But I think i want something that blends in somehow.. thanks??

That way, no one but you sees it and the dog cannot jump onto it. Until The Tale of the Lioness is told, the Story will Always Glorfy the Hunter
