OT: Tried a one man auger, but it didn't work with his soil that had too much clay. Used what I've always heard called a sharpshooter shovel for the post holes, but use what's best for your soil and recommend metal instead of wood for your posts. His posts are concreted in. At least a 2x6 kickboard at the bottom of a fence is also good to keep the picket bottoms off the ground. That fence uses 2x12 pressure treated lumber for the kickboard. Also and I learned this the hard way from a fence I built long ago, but a board on board picket design isn't good for large dogs that might chew. Since board on board has 2 layers of pickets, the surface is uneven and dogs are able to get their teeth on the edge of the pickets to chew a hole to get out.
