I've been in my new house for about 2 weeks now and need a temporary fence for my dog. My 60 pound dog will not take off when I let her outside to do her business, but now that the ground is wet due to the snow, she comes back with wet/muddy paws. (I knew this was going to happen, but I've been so busy getting settled that I ignored it until now). I'm going to spread some gravel around and was going to use a few lengths of rebar pounded into the ground with some plastic snow fencing. Then it occurred to me that I probably won't be able to pound the rebar into frozen ground.

Any ideas?

I think you can get temporary chain link fence that is free-standing.. this is what I'd try to locate

i need to have something like this too when i move

OK, driving a piece of rebar into frozen ground is a lot easier than I expected.

4door, Home Depot has a selection of 5 or 6 different types of fencing you can use with this.

^COOL!
i have a gazebo thing i was going to put around the bottom of the stairs and somewhat make a cage wrapping something around it... but it was a little ghetto looking...haha

Woodson

Oh, what I have is still ghetto looking

two doors down where im moving too.. they are just using wooden stakes and chicken wire
it looks like the dogs can just walk right over it

oh what we do for dogs

Frozen Ground? When does it get cold here?

No wonder you guys drive your cars in "winter"

Woodson

We get all our snow in March and April.

oh yeah!
we get awsome winters normally..
through out the whole winter... there is like 5 days that make it extremly difficult to drive the s2000
other then that... it snows.. and melts and its nice to drive it
