Is there a way to loop this around a post or do you need to buy a tie out anchor? It's a perfect post that the dog will not get tangled in the cable.

I tether goats for grazing with this product without using anything. I simply loop it around the smooth rounded post and clip it back onto the cable. Works without problem 99% of the time. Only times this fails is when the post isn't smooth and round. You do have to watch any animal on a tether since they can get their feet tangled in the slack cable. I check at least every 30 minutes. The worst thing I experienced is them basically hog tying themselves and limiting their mobility.

I loop it around my grandma's fence post. I just loop it and clip it onto itself, if that makes any sense.

for a 30 ft I would say yes I bought the smaller one then I bought another one and linked them together. During bad weather I have it loop tied around the front porch then lock it in with the clasp. It works good then you can decide how far you want your dog to go. Hope this helps

yes you can loop this around a post---I have it looped around my porch leg---it has two hooks on it one at each end so it is versatilehope this helps

It works perfect on the seat post, no cables to get in the way, that is the only way I use it now.

Yes you have to make a complete loop. You can however make a double loop seperating the wires by about 4 feet, or secure the wires to a physical structure. You would run the twisted dog fence wire out to the area you are wanting to secure and just make a double loop around the one side, connecting one end of the loop wire to one end of each end of the twisted wire, but remember you must separate the wires by 4 feet or so to avoid canceling out the signal.

I secured via strong bike cable lock using one of the latch holes. I secured that to a tie down in the bed. Use pad lock to link cable to hole

No...there is no place to attach it. I saw online where a guy used fishing line to make his own tether. Maybe you can try something like that.

I am having the same problem. I plan to anchor it by placing a roped Brick O block to each corner post and lay one block on each side and back to prevent wind from getting under it. I have not tried it , but plan to.Please let me know of any ideas you get from others

There is a VERY TINY loop to attach something to, unfortunately the manufacturer didn't supply one, and finding something that tiny that is strong enough to hold it is basically impossible. It's the size of a small gauge fishing wire.

I have seen people do that before. I think you just need to be ABSOLUTELY sure about the strength of whatever you're anchoring it to. It doesn't take up a lot of space so other than hanging/safety techniques it's a cinch. I hope that sufficiently answers your question.

Yes we had ours in a loop. We only had it buried about 1". Quit using it tho as the dog finally just decided to "go for it".

For it to be tight you need areas to hook bungee cords. It will not keep a persistent dog back. For my dogs I still must remind them, from time to time, to stay back.

We are the seller. Thank you for the question. We just added an instruction on how to install the anchoring hook in picture gallery. You may follow the 3 step instruction to install the anchoring hook easily.

You could wrap it around a tree but my dog runs around and gets herself tangled up around posts or trees. I bought a long screw-like post that I put in a hole in the ground that I filled with concrete. I have a black lab that likes to chase rabbits and squirrels. She hasn't pulled it out of the ground.

It has the clasps on both ends . I don't see why not just hook one end around the cable. But I would check and see if the pole is sturdy enough first. I ran a cable from a tree to my shed and have it clasped on there. Or put it around a sturdy tree trunk.

First off, You don't need a spring. Just snap it into dog's collar and anchor it so the dog can't get tangled up.

You could do it with 1 hook. You just need to wrap the chain so it doesn't slide up the post when you are lifting. Use the hook to loop over the lifting part of the jack and attach to the other end of the chain

Depends on where your trying to hang this. Unless your trying to hang this indoors off 2 walls then no. You can wrap any kind of cordage around a tree, post, etc. and create a permanent or temporary fixed loop that acts as an 'anchor point'. The hooks from the hammock will attach to those points. I'd recommend a 'slip knot' if your not going to replace the hooks with carabiners. It's hard to get them off (not impossible) but you won't have to worry about the hooks coming loose from your anchor points.

Usually a tie out stake. Since you are on vacation, I would think it will depend upon the size of your dog and what you might have access too: a tree, a deck post, anything sturdy would do--wrap the cable around it.
