I'm so glad that you and your little dog had a positive experience with Dogwatch. I was also very nervous when I considered an invisible fence. I actually tried the unit on my wrist before I put it on the dogs. It was a surprise "tingle" as opposed to a horrible punishment.
The training is so important! Yes, there are units you can purchase cheaper. But the training is designed to prevent them from ever needing a correction. I fear that the cheaper versions rely on shocking the dog into submission. I hope I'm wrong.
