[QUOTE=metoo21;2030011]When a dog runs through it, they can't get back in even if owner is calling it.


Incorrect. When I had an invisible fence more than 25 years ago, smart dogs could sneak through the line or jump over it and be on their merry way.. And yes, they would get "zapped" if they tried to re-enter.

Newer, more expensive invisible fences broadcast much further. So Rover can't just jump the fence anymore .. He is clearly incented to get back to the safety of his yard.
