Default partially above ground ponds

my partially above-ground pond is a 300 gallon stock tank. it didn't stop
the neighbor's dog from getting into it, but the scolding he got while being
dragged out did. he hasn't been back.

we were going to set it lower in the ground with only about a foot above
ground but while digging we ran into a water line. so we added some of the
dirt back in, tamped it down, put in some gravel and sand so we could level
it, and stuck the pond in the hole. we stacked brick around it to cover up
the bright blue. the fish are happy.

Subject: partially above ground ponds

I was wondering if perhaps any one had any photos of a pond that is
partially above ground? We have had an "inground" pond for several years but
also have several water loving dogs and did not want to fence in the pond
and so we are thinking of having it "partially above ground" with some sort
of support as a deterent. Please email me with any suggestions or photos off
list.



thanks!
