I need to put up a fence for our puppy.

I plan on 4x4 PT posts, 4 feet above ground, 2 feet below.

I'm getting conflicting advice on concrete vs gravel vs just tamp the
dirt really tight. One expert even recommended concrete in buckets.
There seem to be several successful methods.

I want the posts to be removable eventually, for repair or moving the
fence area. So if concreted in, I'd want them to not be stuck to
it.

What do you think?

And yes, I know to call Miss Utility before digging.


If you're gonna fence the puppy in, why have one?


So you aren't sharing it with the neighbors?

To keep animal control from bothering you?



Hi,
Here if a dog runs free, fine is 250.00 to the owner. Dogs can run free
only in designated leash free park. If owner does not pick after the
dog, another 250.00 fine.
