"Mixing old with new always tends to lend to PROBLEMS, especially  in construction. We had ordered the same fencing that had been installed prior (years earlier) to add to that fence. Dan's fence did agree to do the installation even though he would not normally consider installing another companies product.  Since the fence had been installed years before we purchased the property and it was still available, Steve Magee, owner of Dan's Fence Co. agreed to help us with our project. What we did not know is while it still had the same name that company had changed the dimensions enough to cause multiple installation problems. These problems were not discovered till the original sections had been removed and we were committed.  I must say while very frustrated, Steve, was wonderful of sticking it out and finding the solution.  It took allot of extra work, time and imagination but he was able to complete the job to our satisfaction. 
Steve was great to work with, with each new problem he stayed calm and pleasant. He always presented several options for me to choose from.

Fencing questions, answered by experts

The most common hog wire gauge for a fence is 12.5. However, you can choose from a few gauges based on your needs. While 12.5 is a reliable gauge for penning in large, strong animals, 9 gauge is a better option of you have large animals that are easily spooked, such as horses. For smaller animals, like dogs or pigs, you can use a 16 gauge hog wire.

Galvanized metal, vinyl, and composite fences are known to be the longest-lasting options, often surviving for over 30 years with proper care. Metal fences, including galvanized chain link and aluminum, can look great for decades because the galvanization process adds a protective coating that resists weather and pests. Similarly, vinyl and composite materials are resistant to pests and can withstand harsh weather for many years. In comparison, a typical wood fence lasts about 15 years, and a standard vinyl fence has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years.

If you come face-to-face with a wolf in your yard, chances are it will be afraid of you as a human. Make eye contact and get big—waving your arms to increase your size. Use noisemakers or air horns if you have them, or throw a few rocks around to discourage them from approaching you. If all else fails and the wolf does not retreat, back away slowly while maintaining eye contact and find safe ground, whether indoors or up a tree. 

To choose where to add a fence gate, know where fence gates shouldn’t go. For example, you should avoid placing gates over low spots on the ground where water can collect and form muddy puddles. Many ranchers install gates at the corner of a fence. Certain gate placements may also be required depending on the type of gate latch you use.
