Adding A Fence Will Give Your Pets The Space They Need

They aren’t just pets; they are a part of your family. Don’t they deserve their own space to frolic around in?

Use Fencing To Keep Them Safe In The Yard

You don’t have to fence the entire yard. Simply make a small enclosure for your pet, enough to give them the space they need.

You can add a comfortable mat for them to sit on, and place their water and food bowl. Your pet might have some favorite toys they would like to play with; they can be put inside as well.

This way your pet will be able to enjoy being outdoors and at the same time be safe. Be sure the fence is safe for them; certain wire fences can be dangerous. Also ensure there aren’t any spaces in between the boards for your pet to squeeze out from.

You could also add a small water fountain instead. This will serve the same purpose and running water is fun for dogs. It is a good way for them to cool off.

However, be sure the fencing covers this area and that you add steps to the pool so that your dog can get in and out of it easily.

Remember To Use Pet Safe Plants

When planning to make your yard a fun filled space for your pet, remember to make it safe by only using pet-safe plants.

By this we mean avoid using plants that can be toxic to them. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® (ASPCA®) provides an extensive listing of toxic plants for pets. This should be taken care of when planning the layout of the yard.

You could also consider using raised beds for special plants you don’t want ruined. And when treating weeds, be sure to use pet-safe products.

Create Resting Areas

Your pet will require a nice and comfortable resting area when they feel tired. A big flat rock or any kind of elevated area will do the trick! Adding trees for shade is also important to make it a fun and relaxing spot for them.

If you are feeling extra creative, make fun and shady tunnels out of vines and lattice for them to rest in. This way they can have their very own private spot.

So if you are looking to surprise your pet with their very own space to have a good time outside, this is the perfect way to do it. Same Day Fence is a reliable Woodstock fencing company that can have a sturdy and safe fence installed in no time.
