Marsha , I solved that problem!!!! I went to the old road signs shop
and got the Road Closed signs.. They are big and I put them where
the
gaps are in the gates.. I paid almost $3,000 in fencing when I
moved here
2 years ago and even ran it under the dirt and planted
grass.. Well then
they climbed out where the fence joins on the
gates. Well the Road Closed
signs fixed my problems.. Yeah.. I am
happy and so are my Chi's..
Also , I tried to share the addy to the other group .. you wouldn't
have it would you?? I was hoping that who ever wanted to check it
out
could just click into but even my website came through with out
the
highlight.. Can you type my web site for me. ?? Maybe it will hi
light if
you get individual e-mails.
