My mother told me to" buy at least five acres, put in corner post while the survey markers are still there. Put up hog tight fencing to keep my animalls in and stray animals and wandering people out. Build your house right in the middle so people can't snoop into your business." Still good advice.
Wow...... learned something new today! Never knew how to do fencing before. What a beautiful, perfect job! SO interesting!!! (I'm a faithful viewer of THIS OLD HOUSE and LOVE learning new things...) LOVE to you and Wanda!
I respect the fact that you put a fence up instead of either killing the dog, or fighting with the neighbors. Sometimes we do what we feel is right by the Lord, and forgiving your neighbor is part of the plan. Animal control, if you still have one, or the police, should deal with the dog. God bless.
I remember my Dad stretched fence this way, a good memory. Sorry you had to be put to trouble, people are not good neighbor minded folks anymore, shameful how times are changing. You guys did an awesome jobs, blessings to you for taking the high road
Great job. Looks real nice ... and you handled the neighbor problem well. Hope your neighbor comes to realize what a good neighbor he has! May God bless and guide all concerned.
Nothing like a clean fence line. Our neighbors have dogs just like that too. We have a couple of runs to do ourselves to finish off our woven fence. This video was right on time.
Beautiful fence. We also put up fencing to keep out aggressive neighbor dogs, but went with cattle panels - easiest at the time....had no clue what we were doing, but it is keeping out other dogs, and keeping our animals in....
Danny, we are getting down to 22 degrees tonight with sleet & snow in northern Arkansas. We were in the 20's a few nights ago also. We've had only a few days yet to feel spring-like. I've been paying attention to you about the GSM. This is really happening. Btw, the fence looks great.
I’m having the same problem with the dogs on my property. I am also having problems with the neighbors coming on my property at will. I have had enough! Time for fences and posted/no trespassing signs.
Excellent fencing video ;) Sure brought back a lot of (good) memories of stringing fence with my Dad and brothers. My Dad also just would not tolerate a sagging fence! Thank you for sharing
Thank you for this video, those clips just frustrated me so much yesterday. Gonna give it another try this morning. The one I tried last evening just gave up and purchased some wire they were inside my caged garden. Will be installing cattle panels today hopefully this will work since I have more room to move around.
going to be putting up some permanent fence on an expanded garden this year, and extending my chicken run as well, so I will shortly be joining you in fence building. VERY nice job Danny! And Wanda is ever the good helper. :)
You’re a Christian Gentleman, sir, that fence is more than just pretty to look at, and strong for its’ purpose, it speaks volumes of yourself and Mrs. Wanda just doing the right thing no matter the personal cost. Refreshing to see, I will long remember this lesson on - “ the testimony of a fence.” Sincerely, JJ
We live and an un-incorporated town and man do we have lots of strays. Feral cats to. But none of us want to incorporate because we get away with a lot. he he.. So far not to many issues with dogs. A few get shot here and there. Your a good man for going the route you're going. Blessed are the peacemakers! take care
Thanks for the tips I had some old fencing here that I had to readjust and fix and I have something I have to put up new this was very helpful thank you very much
That sturdy fencing will keep out the roaming dogs,and other predators.Really nice job.Some folks just have no manners.Be well you all.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡.........
Hey Mr Danny I hate that these dogs are giving you so much problems. I’ve heard you talk about them a few times now. Man that is a nice looking fence. Great job. Keep up the good work. Stay safe and god bless.
It is sad that the dog situation appears to have worsened since I was there. :( A homesteader's work is never finished, but care when doing a job certainly looks good! Quality work there. :) Hey, miss the two of you!
I definitely agree with you about the dogs be responsible dog owners keep your dogs at home it's only right I love dogs I've had them on my life I always kept them home and I kept them under control it's part of being a responsible dog owner I totally agree with you Danny 100% have respect for your neighbors what's the old saying goes good fences make good neighbors right
Putting in fences looks like lots of work! I will be learning this skill, on a small scale this year. Thx for sharing your project. Sorry neighbors dogs are forcing your hand to do new fencing....
Danny, you are a gentler man than me, got dogs acrossing my property all the time and I love them but if they cause a problem, I have a quite solution. All the best in the up coming year! PS: good looking fence!
Thanks again for the video and sharing your experience. I have the same problem with the neighbor's dogs. I am doing the same things you are doing to protect my investment. God bless .
Paint you up some tin cans or make some tin covers to put over the top of your posts, before you cover put something on top of the post like oil or something to prevent bugs from making nests under the tin, just a suggestion :-)
I enjoyed this video. I was raise by a single mom who was a city girl. There are a lot of thing that I don't know about. Like how to put up a fence. Thanks!
i have one of those neighbors too!they even told me "we live in the country,and we can do anything we want out here " lol...my dog has never been on one of my neighbors propertys.
Yes, we country people can shoot the dogs coming or attempting to come on our property too. It's amazing to me how many crude and rude people there are. Even constantly barking dogs, invading your neighbors air space. How anyone can feel comfortable being disrespectful to their neighbors, much less put their homes at risk or interfere w/quality of life for those around them is beyond me.
@@tracischeelk29 Haha, yeah, god bless texas. You're allowed to shoot any animal that comes onto your property and causes issues of any kind. This is a good retort when it comes to "your rights".
My neighbor said the same thing and my reply was "Exactly like shoot trespassing dogs and bury them with my backhoe for fertilizer." I'm not here to be buddies with people that don't recognize property ownership and the rights that come with it. If you give a neighbor like that an inch he'll take a mile from you and it will never stop.
I should show this to the "professional" fencing company that out up my neighbors split rail. It is terrible to look at. Lol, all wonky with tons of ups and downs. Gen 2:18 💜 your help mate
Lovely job at fencing. It looks so easy to do, in a short video. But in reality, it probably took several weeks to organise, to get to this point! I'm sorry about your neighbour's dogs. For the most part, we have wonderful neighbours. Even when their animals get out and cause damage, they personally make amends, so their neighbours aren't out of pocket. It's always that one person, who moves to the area however, who thinks wide open spaces means their animals are free to roam wherever they want. I feel your pain. While a bullet might be swift, it also creates tensions in a neighbourhood. The effected parties, start to think payback and then everyone's animals are on the line. I almost ate a poisonous bait as a toddler, that was thrown into our yard, to kill our dog. A particular person in the neighbourhood, decided they would personally sort out the barking dogs, by killing all of them in the neighbourhood. Our dog died and several others. If my mother didn't see me, with a strange piece of bread in my hand, I could have died too. So I understand why you may wish to take responsibility for protecting your animals, rather than creating a feeling of hostility and nervousness in the neighbourhood. It's a shame, not everyone feels the same responsibility is owed their neighbours.
Danny, I wish that I was there to give you a hand. Y'all have been going through some ordeal and that's a shame. At least you have an awesome assistant there. What a team🍃
We had a new neighbor that is not even connected to our land that came to the door and asked if the no trespassing sign down in the hollow behind our house was ours. He then mentioned one of the tree stands in the center of our property! He said he was "scouting around' looking for turkey hunting places -- on our land. It's the city folks who buy a little vacation property and believe all of the land around them is available for their use that are the biggest problem around us.
Danny, I feel your pain. Had the exact same thing happen here. Spent the last few years installing fence. Unfortunately the dog pays for the owners ignorance. Good dogs get into trouble when not attended.
The problem we have is people dumping animals, mostly cats and dogs. Then they chase after out animals because their hungry and then we have to dispose of them. It's sad, it's not the animals fault, but I can't let them kill all my animals.
Neighbors dog killed one of my chickens while I was at work. Wife witnessed the dog carrying chicken in its mouth. I called my neighbor and told him what happened and if his dog was caught on my property again he would be buried beside the chicken. The hole is already dug.
Well I'll tell you what that's one of the nices lookin fences I 've seen! What a excellent job! Now thats a pretty fence line! Got the same problem with new neighbors and their big dogs! What is wrong with people!
What a shame I was always taught that if your dog was out of yard and bothering the other neighbors animals it is time to take care of it and put it up ,this day and time people has lost respect and manners and real nice fence .God Bless
it isnt the dogs fault, it is the owners. i have a 6 foot tall fenced yard, and got it only for my dogs so they stay safe. its people who dont take the responsibility to make sure their dogs are trained and kept home. kinda like the way the world is, it is becasue of people not the animals...
Sorry to hear about the dogs. If that doesn't work, try rock salt in your 12 or 20 gage. It won't kill them but, it will make them think twice. Its like my grandma use to say " even a dog understands pain". Good luck...
My mother told me to" buy at least five acres, put in corner post while the survey markers are still there.

Awesome job, you have a beautiful property, I'm having to do the same thing right now due to neighbors dogs
I know exactly what you mean about one of those neighbors. Your fence is looking great.Good fences make good neighbors.
Beautiful property
❤❤❤ all your videos 👍👍👍👍
Hard work pays off, nice looking fence!
💖 ~ Crystal
Good vid as usual take care with rough weather coming in conrad & karen spain
Thank you, very insightful.
Looks lovely Danny!
Good fencing is VERY important. Good how to.
Hey what's up Danny excellent job on the fence it came out great 👍 👌
WOW...fantastic job...
Mr. Danny, that is a very nice looking fence. I hate that about the dogs though and I understand all too well.
I don’t understand why he couldn’t flip the roll around where he wanted to start originally to unroll it since it doesn’t have a top or bottom.
the spacing is tighter on the bottom so the roll has to go one way.
I should show this to the "professional" fencing company that out up my neighbors split rail. It is terrible to look at. Lol, all wonky with tons of ups and downs.

. when my neighbors dog started coming by for a chicken or some trash I had to get a bigger dog. she kind of chased him off. great job on the fence

William Hoskins It is getting tough but the Father will work it out. Thanks my friend

Love This! Thanks Deep South!
You’ve GOT to be kidding me... 🤦🏻♀️
I hoped that neighbor would have come around by now... 🙄
GREAT VIDEO!! Lookin good!! ❤️
Freedom Acres Unfortunetly they have not and now we have more dogs to deal with. Thanks girl
We had a new neighbor that is not even connected to our land that came to the door and asked if the no trespassing sign down in the hollow behind our house was ours.

Thank you Brother appreciate you sharing your knowledge , Godbless you and yours.
Great piece of work 👍
Your fence looks great, and we picked up some good tips. Thank you.
Danny, I feel your pain. Had the exact same thing happen here. Spent the last few years installing fence. Unfortunately the dog pays for the owners ignorance. Good dogs get into trouble when not attended.
Thank you! Very helpful.
Looks great!
Looks good 👍
thank you for your help
Thanks for showing me how to do that. God bless!
Maybe add a strand of the old barbed wire at ground level. Keep them from digging under it. Varmints too.
Great job!
Infrastructure was a good lesson!
thanks lotta good information
Thank you
good work

Good looking fence. Here in the UK we tend to use wooden posts on our fences. I like the US metal post system.

Good fences make good neighbors. How about responsible neighbors make good neighbors?
Amen that so true bsofar
our great Pyrenees collects the neighbors chickens as well as ours and puts them back INSIDE THEIR COOP
Well I'll tell you what that's one of the nices lookin fences I 've seen! What a excellent job! Now thats a pretty fence line! Got the same problem with new neighbors and their big dogs! What is wrong with people!
Looks nice
Cut the tops of the wood posts at 45 degrees to delay wood rot.
Great fence :) If you don't have a tractor to pull the fence, what would you suggest instead....parts where trees are quite close too.
Taunya Wolfe Finn We use a come a long in that case. Thanks
Looks real good
Looks like yall know how to build fence , 👍

Awesome!
Looking for a video on fencing a swamp. I have woven wire fence
looks good
Dang! Now THAT is a fence!
How far apart are the t posts suppose to be ideally?
Sorry to hear about the dogs.
If that doesn't work, try rock salt in your 12 or 20 gage. It won't kill them but, it will make them think twice.
Its like my grandma use to say " even a dog understands pain".
