I was looking for something to prevent my miniature dachshund from escaping beneath a metal field gate. This steel landscaping edging proved to be just the thing as it is high enough to fill the gap of about 5 inches high tapering to 1 inch at the other end of the gate where the ground rises, has sharp teeth ensuring that it is easy to knock in, can be knocked to exactly the required height, is just the right width and is sturdy enough to stay upright. It also looks very smart. Delighted, I will not lose my sausage again!
