Smile Dog Issues

I see lots of posts for and against dogs being on private property. An option for extra small dogs might be to add a short 18 inch wire or wroth iron fenced area, enhanced by landscaping in the rear of your home. Just a thought, but check with your neighbors and the Landscape Approval folks first. I hope never to see my neighbor put up an 8 foot wood fence and paint it black, but a very small decorative landscape fence would not bother me at all. What are some other thoughts on this idea? We have purposely purchased our last four homes in subdivisions with strict rules, but since the villages is a Dog Friendly community, should consideration be given to allow small decorative 12 to 18 inch landscape dividers. As we age, both us and the dog become less able to go for a walk.
