elaeagnus (silverthorn, I think?)

N. MS. I want a dense hedge, tall, trimmed to six feet across the front of my yard. I plan to put a gate across the driveway. Looking for privacy, keep neighbors' dogs out of the yard. Want it to look pretty.

I want a sure thing (well in so far as that's possible with gardening!) I have full sun across the front, well drained, acidic soil.

Is elaeagnus the best choice??

If not, what is? If elaeagnus is the best choice, what size plants do I need to buy if I want a six foot hedge in three or four years?

Thanks for your help! It is much appreciated!
