The Benefits Provided by Having Fencing
There are a number of reasons fenced gardens are beneficial for dogs and their owners.
Some of the most important include:
- A fenced yard will give a dog room to run, jump, and play, and encourage him to get plenty of exercise.
- Fenced gardens help prevent boredom. Dogs who get the chance to chase squirrels, smell interesting things, and bark at passing pedestrians will enjoy a ton of mental stimulation.
- A fenced garden makes it easy to just let your dog go outside and answer nature’s call.
- Fences are great for those who cannot go to the park. Many dogs have a fun filled time at the local park, but some are not capable of playing nicely with others. Other dogs can’t go to the park for medical reasons.
- Fencing may help your dog ward off intruders. Even relatively small dogs will often bark up a storm when strangers approach, so a fenced garden may help keep your home a bit safer.
Above all fences do not replace walks, in addition to any fence, you will still need to take your dog out daily. Dogs need to explore and enjoy wonderful smells and pee in all the right spots and need that stimulation.
