Dog Run using HoofGrid </div> <div> Hello Mark,</div> <div> I am Jeff W*****, husband to Joan M****. You have been working with her on this dog run project and I want to thank you kindly for your assistance to her during this time. Dayville Supply will be delivering our product this morning, thanks to your help. I wonder if you have time for a question however.</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 496 WIDTH="219"><div> In discussing the installation of hoofgrid with Joan she mentioned that it is recommended that you start at one corner and establish one edge and then work back-and-forth to the other side. I wish to understand more fully why that is recommended.</div> <bR> <div> We have a 30x60 area that will be enclosed in chain link fence. Currently, we have the area graded and the fence posts are set. Our hoofgrid will extend several feet beyond the outside of the fence line to prevent any digging by bowing the fence as well as to provide a secure and stable walking area around the perimeter of the dog run.</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="6b280e00.jpg" border=0 width="640" height="480" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 95 WIDTH="859"><div> In working with floor tile in a home, the recommended procedure is to start at the centre of the room and work out to the walls. I envisioned this project as a similar process for that reason. Do you have any comment on this? I don't anticipate this will be any problem regardless of the approach, but am curious as to the logic behind the recommended procedure.</div> <div> Thank you kindly,</div> <div> Jeff W*****</div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
