Hello,
I am in need of help! We just recently put up chainlink fence for out dog run in the back yard, I had started planting morning glories and sweet peas and just recently discovered that they are both very toxic (one deadly) to my dogs. As I am needing these vines to create a wall for their run I need a plant that is completely non toxic as Storm, the youngest dog LOVES to nibble on plants. I live in Saskatchewan, Canada - not sure which zone that would be considered, we have very hot summers and very cold winters so if anyone knows a vine that can meet these needs I would be very apprecative!
thanks!

Saskatchewan gets very cold, and this will limit what you can grow. Since the USDA zones do not go that far north, I would use something like North Dakota or Montana as a starting place. (Use zone 2. Zone 1 is northern Alaska) If a plant would grow in ND or Montana, it would probably grow in Saskatchewan. I would start with a list of what vines might grow in your area, then check that list against something like this:
