Personally, I don't trust them to be 100% effective as I have first hand knowledge of a dog that got by one. We lived in Washington in a community like TV in that "no fences or walls". A neighbor several houses away left her lab alone in the yard and the dog (his name was Max) was chasing birds and ran right through the invisible fence. Once outside, I guess he couldn't get back in, so he went looking for a playmate. He saw me working in my yard and ran up to me and tried to get me to play. In his exuberance, he bit me on the hand and drew blood. A lot of it. My wife called the neighbor who came to take him home and when she saw blood dripping from my hand ( No exaggeration here), she was was mortified, to say the least. I mentioned the dogs name so you would understand when I tell you that later that day I heard the doorbell ring and answered , no one was there, but I found a large plate of freshly baked cookies with an apology letter from Max. The moral of my story: if you put in an invisible fence, be prepared to make cookies. Stay well. Stay safe. Don't rely on an invisible fence. Peace! |
at my age, 1/2 the time i appear to have been attacked by an angry bride using a 9 iron,,, the other 1/2 its only (?) a sand wedge,,, that's another concern - just how effective is it compared to a 4,000 hi-test hercaloy chain ? as you opined, its 'breakable' depending on circumstances
thanks for the replies - best |

I know it's just me, but why do you need a fence for an invisible dog? |
Ha ha ha.

I think my neighbor has an invisible dog. I'll ask him about it.

My son has two very active Australian Shepard pups (about 6-8 months old). He’s had electric fences installed both at his home as well as his vacation home. They.work like a charm.
If there’s any suggestion he might have for really active dogs like his it would be don’t make the protected area too small. He did that at his home and there’s not much grass left “inside”. And it’s very muddy during rainy seasons. Don’t know the brand but obviously there were different installers at both homes. |
Keep in mind that there are coyotes and other predators here in The Villages. I would never leave my dogs alone in the yard.

I used invisible fence Of Central Florida… 352 - 351–1055. How did installed about a month ago for my springer spaniel who loves to run after people and bark at them and their dogs. He would never hurt anyone but he loves to tell them who’s boss. The fence was installed in a day and my dog learned very quickly where he can and cannot be. A trainer comes out two or three times or more if needed and worked with my dog and with me. I highly recommend them. Not only does my dog not run after people or attempt to he doesn’t bark at them in the street anymore I guess because he knows he can’t go after them. It was money well spent $1999 and worth it. If you want to talk, you can call me at 910-603-8728
