No-Dig Dog Fence Kit for Existing Fences with Black Vinyl-Coated Welded Steel Mesh and Ground Stakes
This no-dig dog fence kit creates a physical barrier along the base of an existing fence to help stop dogs from digging underneath. Dog Proofer uses black vinyl-coated galvanized welded steel mesh that extends onto the ground and up the fence, securing the ground edge with galvanized metal stakes.
Match the barrier to your fence line with kit lengths from 50 to 400 feet. Standard mesh provides 8–12 inches of ground coverage and 8–12 inches of vertical coverage; XL mesh allows 24–30 inches on the ground and 12 inches up the fence. The mesh can be trimmed around fence-line obstructions, while its openings allow grass to grow through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this dog digging barrier need an existing fence?
Yes, this dog digging barrier attaches to an existing fence and extends onto the ground. It reinforces the fence base rather than forming a freestanding enclosure.
How do Standard and XL mesh coverage differ?
Standard uses 24-inch mesh for 8–12 inches of ground coverage and 8–12 inches up the fence. XL uses 42-inch mesh for 24–30 inches of ground coverage and 12 inches up the fence.
Which fasteners do I need to attach the mesh to my fence?
The attachment fasteners depend on your fence material and are not included. Wood fences can use heavy-duty staples, metal and chain-link fences can use UV-resistant zip ties, and brick or block requires suitable masonry fasteners with washer heads.
Can the mesh fit around obstructions along my fence?
Yes, the welded wire mesh can be trimmed to work around fence-line obstructions or accommodate particular heights. Its 1.7-inch square openings also allow grass to grow through.
