I need to put up a fence for our puppy.I plan on 4x4 PT posts, 4 feet above ground, 2 feet below.I'm getting conflicting advice on concrete vs gravel vs just tamp thedirt really tight. One expert even recommended concrete in buckets.There seem to be several successful methods.I want the posts to be removable eventually, for repair or moving thefence area. So if concreted in, I'd want them to not be stuck toit. What do you think?And yes, I know to call Miss Utility before digging.

Treated wood and a puppy I wouldn't recommend - they WILL chew. It could really make for misery. They will chew everything. How about the chain link panels? they make a dog ready set of four. I have a set and they work well - can be moved easily and stored too. Don't forget shade, a deck to lay on, and things to keep him occupied. Remember, it's a puppy.

how do I install fence posts?
