Dogs.

Im slowly working on getting my property fenced. So far just a half acre. The rest will be fenced after we can get a house built.

Although, I've been enjoying not having the back yard fenced. I've seen a momma deer and a couple fawns on occasion over the past couple weeks.

Our neighbor's yard is fenced. The deer do not care, as they are frequently grazing in her yard. The best the fence can do is keep the dog in and the fawns out. But momma's have no issues with a 4' fence. They don't even take a running start at it.

I enjoy seeing the fawns close by

I spooked the fawns yesterday morning when I took my pooch for her walk at sunrise.

Poor buggers were crying as they were running away

They were hanging out by the dog pen, where my sister in laws husky has been staying.

The husky was just sitting inside her kennel watching the fawns.

The fawns were probably 20ft from the edge of the fence when I spooked them.

It's a hard project. But it's not a garden fence thing.

It took me a long time to fence exterior of my 30 acres. Then had to build interior cross fencing to isolate horses, etc.

It just never ends.

That's a LOT of fencing! If my math is correct, about 1143 feet per side if it was a perfect rectangle.

My fence to separate is done. I just need to sink a couple posts and add a gate. The other 4 acres plus a fenced in back yard will be after the house and shop get built.

Actually more. Ones a 20 acre parcel and the other is a 10 acre across the street.

My records show 6,520 ft of a mix of field fence and non climb horse fence, plus 900 feet of white vinyl fence. Thats not counting all interior cross fencing, as i stopped keeping records . Got lazier. Then throw in dig pens, interior horse corrals, etc. No wonder im so tired

Fence and done are two terms that will never be together when talking about fences, there is always something that needs repairing or replacing

Over last 10 years I have fenced more than half of my 92. Worked in stages, expanding cattle pastures as needed (wanted). I still have many more feet to run and likely it will never be done right.... As long as the critters stay in with help from me or the dogs I'm good. Deer and Cattle are hard on any fence, and my 100+ pounds dogs do not help when they are on a mission.
