You patio is close to the ground, but many are higher and sorry to say, many dogs hang themselves by trying to jump off the patio.

How did I miss this? Looks great.

I live in Fort Worth TX and we have some sort of law that forbids staking dogs but I don’t know it this situation is a code violation. I’m going to check it out and make sure. I have a chihuahua too, two actually!

We just used wire around the lip of the bulb cover (it had a nice substantial lip). They never fell in over a year of use!

I see wire but was it placed inside or wrapped around the head of the bulb cover? Great idea!!!
