Hi all. Merry Christmas!

I was wondering what fencing, posts etc people use for their Huskies. I have read that 6 foot chain-link is recommended but I was wondering how common this actually is.

Specifically:

What sort of fencing, how high, any anti-dig precautions?

Do you use posts, tethers or cables?

Do you use GPS tracking?

Can you recommend any products?

Has your set-up been successful?

Thanks!

Just got a 6foot fence on one side and a 10 foot hedge on the other side only once escaped because the kids forgot to close the gate…no other gadgets needed with mine…

6ft wooden fencing all around + 6ft double gates  Large potted plants in front of the fences blocking a straight run.    One escapee from the garden -  he once got onto the shed roof and went to visit the next door neighbours.      The front door is your most vulnerable exit point though.   Our other boy got out through that at 12 weeks old - luckily the postman caught him about 50 yards down the road.   We now have dog gates in the hallway guarding the front door,  dog gate going to the kitchen (only used when we have visitors), baby gate at the top of the stairs in case one of them gets past the hallway gate  (cat living upstairs) and yet another barring the way to the cat's food.

I also have huskies and bought a high fence. I live alone, and there was no one to help me install it. The company where I bought the fence told me they only deliver the fence. It was hard for me to find a way to put it because I didn't know where to buy a piece of machinery. My dad told me he could help me, and we found https://www.machinerydealer.co.uk/compact-tractors-for-sale/. I didn't need a big tractor because I didn't have a place to store it. We installed the fence quickly, and I gifted the tractor to my dad.
