    Thanks 4 the suggestions. I think I am going to put in a iron rod fence from lowes.

    Last thing our pup ate was the plug to the xmas lights that were hung around the covered patio area. That piece was no where to be seen.

    One thing I was told highly recommend to do was train w/ shock collar.

    Yes, training pool builders with a shock collar is HIGHLY recommended. Just make sure it's in the contract that they can't take it off except for church services.

    Shock collar on our "babies"??? Are you kidding??? You must have a lot higher niche on the family totum pole than I do Mike!

    You can probably do it without a shock collar - you can use a pinch collar or a choke chain or bitter apple sprayed on it - you just would have to be really dilligent about watching the dog until it was conditioned to leave it alone.

    The fence will look nice too

    Just watch a few episodes of The Dog Whisperer (Cesar Millan) on the National Geographic Channel. It's real eye opener. He trains people to train dogs. It's amazing to see how simple it is once you understand his 'calm assertive' method. Watch if if you can. He's brilliant, simply brilliant!

    I used the white vinyl lattice from Lowe's to enclose the pump, hot tub, and everything else under the deck.
