Default Two big thumbs up for invisible fences

We bought an invisible fence system from Dog Watch in 2013 and have used it ever since. After a short training period, our dog has completely learned the boundaries and can now wander the yard and enjoy herself. She has a natural tendency to 'run', and w/o the invisible fence we might never see her again. Previous to the fence, when we'd answer the door, or when a family member would just come in, she'd bolt and run far distances before we could corral her. So scary. So we love it and would do it again in a heartbeat. And yes, we do monitor her closely while she's outside because of potential predators coming inside the line.
