all fenced in!

Good Morning! I don't think I've done a weekend post before. First time for everything, right?! :)

For about a week now we haven't been able to leave Oliver (our 5 month old Westie) outside by himself because he has discover 2 areas in the fence he could fit and escape, and he did just that, 3 times.

The first time it happened was last weekend. I let him out to go potty while we were cooking dinner and when I went to check on him he was in the side yard, outside of the fence.

This is where he escaped...

So we bought some chicken wire and got busy.

Guess we should have worn those gloves!

The second time he escaped was this past Monday morning when I was home sick. I took him outside and to go potty and he saw the neighbor come out of her house and walk to her car and he darted after her from here:

I had to run after him in my bathrobe, a little embarrassing.

We got busy on this area. There was an area he could fit under the fence so we covered a couple feet at the bottom and up the side where he had been escaping.

And Oliver was with us the whole time, probably trying to find a new way out! ;)

So, for now, Oliver is free to roam our back yard until he discovers the bunny hole. We have a bunny that comes in our yard from the woods behind our house. We will be working on that area of the fence next weekend.

Did you conquer any pet related projects this weekend?
