Help with reinforcing!

[GalaxyQueen]

Hello,
My neighbors dog got into our yard and then tore into our coop. It ended up killing 20 out 25 chickens. We want to reinforce it for the 5 we have and maybe for when we get more. What tips and tricks does everyone to help this from not happening again?? Thank you!!

I think some sort of hot wire would be the most effective method of keeping them out. Perhaps added to the top and bottom of existing fence.

What was your neighbor's response?

Electric wire.

Preferably paid for by your neighbor when your neighbor cuts the check for the replacement birds and coop repairs.

Hardware cloth, 2x4 wire, chain link, in ground apron and good construction.

What does it loo like now? It's hard for me to suggest how to reinforce something if I don't know what you want to reinforce.
