The "invisible fence" seems to work with some of the breeds with little -to-no prey drive. One of the funniest things I ever saw was a neighbor's dog (Jack Russell Terrier) which used to go to the edge of the "buzz" range and stay there until the battery in the collar finally died - then the dog was off to the races!
LOL

That's a great story. And they call them "dumb animals"!!
