My poor doggle.

she'll heal...glad the neighbor stepped up....

however a real step-up would involve putting the dog down

or fully grasping what an insane liability she is imposing on the rest of the neighborhood

and deal accordingly as to bulletproof confinement....

"oops, sorry" just doesn't work well with firearms and vicious creatures

frenzied dogs do not discriminate, thank God your child was out of reach

Hardy is a brand of cement siding.

The siding has to be painted.

Nope...

looks like wooden clapboards with fake grain and everything.

It's blind nailed like clapboards. It must be kept painted though because the cement is mixed with cellulose.

It goes to hell if the paint fails.

If I want to marvel at the durability of wood I'll stare at the barn.

I'd love to put cedar clapboards on the house, but the price and quality of what you can buy today don't make it the best choice.

I can't afford it either.

A proud Australian brand.  Endorsed by Mesothelioma sufferers throughout Australia.

HardiPlank cement boards are widely used in Australia and considered to be a very durable and cost effective alternative to wooden weather board.
