Dog Fence System
I need a gate for my wire fence?
With my husband's help, we installed a 4ft high welded wire fence with metal posts in our yard for our two dogs. It actually looks fairly decent. We didn't get a gate though because neither Lowes nor Home Depot carried a welded wire gate or any lighter weight gate for that type of fence system. Anyone know where I could get one - maybe at a landscape company? Since I used a utility fence maybe a garden gate would work? Any ideas?
Chain link gates are easy to build and install. You could replace the chain link with the welded wire on the gate. It would blend right in.
You may have to install a post to swing the gate on, but it's easy to do.

It can be a scary sight if your dog stopped eating. You may worry that something is wrong and you don't know what to do. Well, chin up, because this article will put your mind at ease. You are about to learn 7 things you can do right now to get your dog back to his old self! After reading, you will have many options at your fingertips!
1. You may need to take him to the vet.
If your dog stopped eating and has not eaten in over a day, call your vet right away and explain the problem. It's best to play it safe. When diagnosed early, your dog has a much better chance at a full recovery!
2. Check his teeth.
If your dog has problems with his teeth or gums, it may be painful for him to eat, especially if you feed him dry dog food. Try a canned variety and see if he will eat it. If you think you see a dental problem, check with your vet for verification.
3. Did you change his food lately?
Switching to a new dog food could be another reason why your dog stopped eating. He may not like it. Dogs can become accustomed to their dog food, especially if they've never had anything else. Furthermore, change can be difficult for some dogs when it comes to their food. You can go back to the old food or try another new one. If you are insistent on the new food, mix about 25% of the new with the old and then gradually increase the new food for a few days until he is completely used to it.
4. Check the expiration date.
The current batch may have gone bad. Dry and wet dog food can spoil even before the expiration date, so you may want to try a fresh supply.
5. Add something new to the current brand you're using
If your dog stopped eating, it may be time for a little variety. If you give your dog dry dog food, try adding some warm water and mashing it up and maybe adding some chicken broth for better flavor. For wet food, you can add some cooked, unsalted beef, chicken, or turkey.
6. Dry food vs. wet food
Dogs like wet food much better than dry. If you recently began giving him dry food when he is used to wet, then you may want to consider switching back.
7. Try a homemade diet
Take a look at most dog food labels and you will see ingredients like meat by-products, crude protein, corn meal, additives, and preservatives. They aren't very nutritious and some may be the cause of dog diseases. A homemade recipe, however, will call for whole foods like beef, chicken, fish, vegetables, eggs, and whole grains. These are packed full of all kinds of health benefits!
If you're dog isn't as healthy as he used to be or you just want to boost his nutrition and immune system, you should consider making your dog's meals at home. Dog's on a homemade diet are healthier, more energetic, and live longer.
You now know what to do if your dog stopped eating. A vet visit might be necessary if your dog hasn't eaten in over 24 hours. The problem could also be tooth pain, a change in dog food, meal boredom, or a spoiled batch. You also learned a good permanent remedy - take control of your dog's nutrition by making his meals in your own kitchen. It's easier than you think! Now that you have all these options, you can effectively solve your dog's eating problem so he'll be healthy again in no time!
Isn't it nice to know what to do now? Knowing the causes of this problem should put your mind at ease. And don't be scared about making your dog's meals yourself. There are tons of recipes out there that will make it a snap! For more information and to learn where to find them, take a quick peek here - http://www.matthewb-knowledge-site.com/index.html
