What do you use to keep a dog from trying to dig out of his chain link fence kennel ?

12 gauge is out of the question. ;o]

The burried wire is good.. and works.

Another option is an electric fence. i take PVC pipe and cut it to 2' lenghts.. and build another perimeter insid eof my fence.. say.. 8" to 1' away from the fence.. then drill a hole inthe top of each pipe to pull mu electric line thru. That has kept my digs int he pen for years.

Had Dobermans kept in dirt floor pole barn that were doing that. I put electric fence about 4 to 6 inches high around the perimiter. Solved the problem.

I was going to say a similar thing. 18 or 24 inch chicken wire would be easy, rolled out flat on the ground inside of the fence, wired to the fence every few feet to keep it in place, buried a little under dirt or pine straw or whatever's about. They hate getting their toes in it.
That said, when I had a Lab/gopher-cross one dog ago and only a hundred feet of fence I dug out a few inches inside the fence and poured quikcrete in the trench. Dogs usually don't figure out that if they drop back a foot or two they could still dig out; they want to dig right at the base of the fence.

We had to lay down woven wire on the ground and cover it with just a little dirt to keep my son in laws dog in the kennal.
