Pet Containment Dog
Anyone have an invisible fence for pets? We do & it is failing. What’s next option?

We live in a community with leash law so it is imperative to keep our dog contained. The collar was turned up as high as it could go & the dog left the yard the next day. Yes, it works. Anybody have fence failure & what was your next choice of containment?

we have a great dane, and we installed an invisible fence for him. it worked for the first few weeks, but then as he started to grow, he outgrew it. those fences only go up about 2 feet, so if your dog is taller than that, he won’t feel it. either that or he just wants to be out so he’ll run through really fast and then won’t go back in cause he know’s it’ll shock him. we had to return the fence and get a chain link 6×10 foot pen. you can buy them already assembled or put them together yourself, but it’s large enough for them to be ok in, but small and cheap enough that it doesn’t put you out much. i think ours was $200, so we used the refund from the invisible fence to get it. we let him out when we are there to supervise, and he seems fine.
