BlueDog, I've read about DogWatch on the internet and it does look good. Did you use a local store to buy and install or did you install yourself?
I had Dogwatch install the system. They installed it with two zones, one front, one rear. The front zone crosses my driveway so they used a saw to cut through an expansion joint in the concrete, installed the wire then calked over it.
As another poster said, it probably wouldn't be a big deal to do a basic install yourself but I would not have a concrete saw so I'd probably be restricted to just the rear zone. I consider the training and advice provided by Dogwatch to be extremely important. That's something you can't get in a kit.
The Dogwatch installation wasn't cheap but if I were to do it again, I'd do it the same way.
