The one we had in Michigan ran underneath the driveway, in the soil. Since there is a four- to six-foot zone that triggers a warning sound and then, if that's ignored, the actual shock, we had ours run about ten feet out from the garage door, which in that house was on the same plane as the front door.


Another thing is if you want to take your dog for a walk, you have to take the collar off and train the dog that there is a specific "spot" over the fence that he can walk without triggering the warning. They don't realize you've simply taken the collar off.
