If you are looking for how to make a wooden fence with adjustable height, here are all the posts and corresponding videos, designed for training your German shepherd to jump. The side supports have slots made with slats where the tongue-and-groove wooden boards fit and can be added or removed to set the desired jumping height. It can also be used as garden decoration, with hanging plants or as a divider where needed.
As you can see, quite thick wooden slats are needed because if we want to make a wooden fence that can withstand impacts like this one, it will need to be very sturdy and somewhat heavy.

Regarding the construction, the most challenging part was making the angled reinforcements at the bottom of the fence sides. It would have been easier to make them at 45º and cut them with the miter saw, but that would have made the feet of the supports too long.
Well, another challenge in making this wooden fence was that not only is it height adjustable, but it is also a detachable fence so it is easy to transport and the wooden pieces are easier to store.
Making a wooden fence like this is not an overly complicated project, as it does not require complicated wood joints. But still, I had to get a bit creative to make the reinforcements and also to correct some manufacturing errors.
Also, since this is a fence that will spend a lot of time outdoors, the wood glue used is specially designed for outdoor use. Additionally, I decided to take extra care in protecting the wood with protective stain.
