A fenced yard or dog run makes life with our canine companions much easier, especially when we are running short on time to get to work, and a pet potty is due.  Dogs enjoy spending time outdoors sniffing the air and taking up the neighborhood news, even when we can't be there to enjoy it with them.  And just like people, dogs need sunshine daily to help metabolize certain nutrients as well as maintain proper nose and ear pigment. Fencing in a back yard can be an expensive proposition often obstructing beautiful views. Portable dog runs allow dog owners to let their dogs outdoors to romp in safe confinement, or to let them roam around in a confined area of the house. With these solutions you can create a stable 100 square foot run and configure it in a variety of layouts for less than $200.00 . Considering a traditional dog kennel of similar size will cost $900 or more, these enclosures have been gaining in popularity. Available at Wags and Whiskers Gifts Starting at $69.99
