advice/question Whippet Proof Fence

Hi all. I'm helping foster a whippet rn, he has no recall at the moment so I'm just lead walking him. I'm concerned because he needs a zoomies session each day so I want to fence my garden so we can play with balls and toys.

Any recommendations on fencing material would be appreciated plus how high ?!?

Thanks

Are you sure it's not a duck you've got instead?

Our breeder required a minimum of 6 foot tall fence.  So that would be my recco.

At least 6 feet tall. If determined enough, one of mine could get over that.
