Fencing in the Yard

We bought our house in early 2018 and one of the first projects we needed to do, long before we could even think about putting a patio in, was put in a fence so that we didn't have to worry about our dogs wandering off.  

Here is the result after the fencing went in.  We went with a 6-foot white vinyl fence around the whole back yard to eliminate any concern of the dogs being able to jump over the fence and to minimize the long-term maintenance required for the fence.

Here is the earliest photo I have from the starting point, we had set up a temporary dog run with chain link fencing at the bottom of our deck stairs as a stop-gap before the vinyl fencing went in.
