How do you secure the openings between the corner of a house and chain link fence? Trying to keep a puppy in.?

Answer 1

Try chicken wire or rebars driven into the ground b/w the house and the fence. My parents' fat Shih-tzu mix kept finding the smallest, most obscure little gaps b/w the house and the fence, or the fence and the ground. They finally resorted to chicken wire and rebar and the fat dog hasn't gotten out since. Good luck.

Answer 2

Chicken wire or metal stakes are your best bet. Many suggest wood but a puppy like to chew and you don't want it chewing on the wood. Splinters can cause problems in the mouth. It also doesn't hurt to use the chicken wire at the bottom of the fence and bury it in the ground to prevent any sneaky escapes or digging. This also keeps some other critters out of your yard. Most importantly, you should not leave your puppy unattended in your yard for very long. Your pet is at a learning stage and you need to use this time to re-enforce good behaviors and stifle bad ones.

Answer 3

I raise Chihuahuas, and you know what escape artist they are.
I used 3/4 rebarb wire and drove it into the ground between the fence and house, then (remember I have those tiny little buggers)
I put a piece of my extra fence, the in line post or the top rail, over the rebarb, it sort of filled in the extra space and looked rather neat and tidy next to the rest of my fence.

If the dogs tend to "nose" the piece up from the rebarb, you can twist it down several inches into the ground.

Answer 4

try putting a 4x4 wooden post or something smaller between the chain link end post and the wall. bury it in the ground.

Answer 5

wooden plank, it works!
