A fence dispensing apparatus for installing fencing wire along a line of fence posts. The fence dispensing apparatus permits easy setup along with efficient and safe operation. In addition to dispensing wire, the apparatus stretches unrolled wire using a winch and a wire interface. The fence dispensing apparatus essentially comprises a base member that sits on an axle and wheels. Moreover, the base member connects to a motor vehicle via a hitch receiver or a three-point tractor hookup. As the vehicle travels along a fence line, the apparatus dispenses wire from a vertically aligned spindle and/or from a horizontally aligned roller. The spindle disconnects from the base member, permitting it to be easily loaded with wire and set up for operation. Additionally, a spindle lock and spindle support act in concert to safely hold the loaded spindle in position. Furthermore, a wear plate between the loaded spindle and the base member protects the base member from excessive wear during operation. In addition to the spindle, a horizontally aligned roller dispenses wire. The horizontal roller includes a safety plate that protects against injury if the unrolled wire breaks and backlashes. Unrolled wire may be connected to a wire interface, permitting the unrolled wire to be associated to a cable without cutting the wire. Turning the apparatus' winch reels in the cable, stretching the unrolled wire.
