How do i put up a fence on a concrete drive way?

Hello Mary,

Police - Dangerous dogs on the loose without a mussel? Otherwise, buy Met Posts with flat plate for fixing to solid floor to take Fence Posts and attach fence panels to the posts and gate if required. Good luck!

Investigate the leash laws in your area. After talking to your neighbor with no solution reached, my first call would be to the local police. Good luck!

So OK. There are good pit bulls and there are bad pit bulls. Years ago it was rottweilers and dobermans everyone feared. The point is you have a serious aggressive dog issue no matter the breed. People may say "stand your ground", "get a gun" or " just have a confident posture and stride" Those are all good ideas but not enough. You need physical(fencing) and legal protection.

First, protect yourself by notifying animal control or police. Always report issues to them- every aggressive act coming from one of these dogs should be on record. Keep your cell phone camera ready when you are out with your pets. Even if the officers can't help now at least you are setting the precedent that there are dangerous, uncontrolled animals that threaten you and your pets.

You may be successful in forcing your neighbors to restrain their dogs but don't rely on them to protect you. Dogs are resourceful about getting loose.

You definitely should add fencing and gates. Go stronger and taller than you think you need. Today it's pit bulls, tomorrow it could be coyotes.

Get a few bids and mention this to your home insurance agent. Best hope is you might be able to file a claim and recoup some of the expense. Realistically tho, as agents, they will have experienced this situation and can advise you on how best to dog proof your property.

Do you have a back yard that the pit bulls can’t get to that’s fenced in? No way can you let your small dogs in the same open area where their dogs are! They could kill them. It’s just a matter of time! You need a tall steel type fence, maybe with rods! If you put it in concrete, no worrying about them digging underneath! My granddaughter has pit bulls and they’ve always managed to get out of a wooden fence! Also my son has a German Shepherd who nearly killed a small neighbor dog! These dogs can’t be trusted around other animals! You could hire a fence contractor but it would be expensive! If you have friend that knows how, that would be great! Google it and see what your options are! We built a 6 ft wooden fence but we had to put pavers at the bottom so our Husky wouldn’t dig out! I’ve thought of putting fence wire or chicken wire 2 ft from the fence and laying blocks on top! In our area, pit bulls are not allowed to run free! Even if you put a chain length fence it will need to be reinforced well to keep them out! Check your city ordinances! I wish I could help you! Good luck!

thank you all for all the advice i really do appreciate your time, mary

Check your property plat description. You should have gotten one when you purchased the house. It's a drawing showing property lines. Usually there is about 6" space between properties. Or you can check with your County. You can build a fence 3" away from the property line. It may look like your driveway butts up to theirs but there is divisible space between properties. You may not have to install a fence on your driveway but in the ground next to it.
