Close to 70% of Australia's total population live in major cities and only 10% actually reside in towns with under ten thousand inhabitants. With that in mind, it is no surprise that when people do move from the cities into more country areas that they are not quite ready for all the changes to their lifestyle. One of those important changes relates to the fencing around your property. In metropolitan areas, these fences are mainly decorative or mark the boundary of their property, but in the country, these fences have a real, utilitarian use. Here are a few reasons why you should always get some serious rural or dog fencing for your new country property.

Keep Out Predators

While the largest predator you are likely to see in the city is a lone snake or perhaps a few spiders, in the country you can find a lot more predators that can actually attack pets or even small children. From dingos to foxes, depending on where you live, these carnivorous animals can prove a pesky handful if you are not wary of them. Rural fencing is stronger and goes deeper so that these animals cannot gnaw through or dig under them. 

Pet Enclosures

Most rural property owners keep their pets outside during the night, but leaving them to their own devices on acres of property is a recipe for disaster. Instead, use a bit of dog fencing to keep them in a fairly secure area close to your home so that they can't get into trouble. Dog fencing is similar to rural fencing, but in this case, it is meant to keep your animals in rather than prevent predators from entering. Normal fencing will not keep excited dogs from escaping should they want to, but dog fencing definitely will, even if it is a larger dog breed. 

Built To Withstand Years Of Punishment

Fencing doesn't have to be built to a high standard because if something goes wrong, such as rust, loose foundations or broken links, then you will spot it almost immediately. Rural fencing, on the other hand, can be kilometres and kilometres away from your house so you would rarely see it unless you happened to stumble across it. That is why this sort of fencing is built tougher, with stronger materials and clever designs that can withstand strong weather formations like hurricane-level gusts of wind and thick hailstones.
