The Art of Fencing

INVISIBLE  fencing, to be exact. I ask you, can you see the fence?? 
Looks like you could walk right through it. Actually...you could.

 More invisible fence from the back corner. 
Look where you step, so you don't blunder into lurking poison ivy.

 Enter a mischievous, half-grown Lab, who was the motivation behind the fence. 
Here she's riding with us after church, to her new home in the Berry.

 Now the fence is no longer invisible. 
We didn't think the canines would fall for the emperor's new clothes trick, 
so we had Jacob's Fencing install one, and an excellent job they did, too!

 It only took me a week to be able to put the two dogs together, 
without Ariela threatening to tear her new compatriot from limb to limb. 
It still too early to predict who will win the coup, but my bet is on the older, wiser Carolina Dog 
to be the next dictator, er, pack leader. Under me, of course. But the decision will not be unanimous.

My two gorgeous debutantes--may I present Ariela and Sapphire?

  1. Now I can put a face to that Sapphire name. If only Pico could meet her!

  2. Is Ariela a Carolina dog? Great pictures.

  3. Haven't done her DNA, but that's my guess. Good thing I got a pic of those azaleas, because the groundskeepers cut down the two bushes, leaving the spiky bush.
