Post and rail or post and dowel fence is common in areas such, as Sheridan, Wyoming. It is great for defining boundaries and meeting HOA requirements, we prefer to use a larger diameter wood materials to make a stronger and better-looking fence, 4ft 2x4 no climb wire is a common add on to make a functional dog proof fence
If you like to walk around your back yard in your birthday suit without stopping traffic, then a wood or steel privacy fence is for you, our most common is a 6ft cedar fence on steel posts
