My lab runs on an acre in WV on an invisible fence, i am always home when i put the collar on him and let him out, i can track/watch him out several windows. I use the invisible fence brand and when the battery needs changed in the collar it starts flashing red, usually last 3 months or so, depends on how close your dog is getting to the boundary line setting the beeper
off. My mother is at the villages but i never bring the dog, i board him, I suppose if i had my own place at the villages i would prefer one with a wall like those verandas, just for the privacy and keeping other critters out, and less distractions............but all for the invisible fence as long as you don't leave your pet unattended. We have had some people throwing out treats tainted with glass or worse so you have to be careful.......ya never know.
