Warning: Watch This Video Before Using an Invisible Dog Fence

[@wheelsuprn6591]

It’s more important to teach them to come to you, the porch, a target to the tones. They should rarely get corrections. They should learn tones mean turn around. Glad you got her straightened out.

[@raicebannon1936]

If you dog does not understand or recognize the sound and shock after three or four times. Your dog may need a lot of work. By that I mean exercise and training with your family. Our dog recognized the shock the first time and linked the beeping sound and flags to it in two days. However she also tested the weak signals as well. If there are hills or wooded areas, and if you have a smart dog; it may find these weaknesses.

I have trained two dogs with a perimeter collar, their initial reaction was the same as you described, complete confusion, back to the porch, not wanting to leave the porch for a few days. However, both dogs learned when their collar was off. Worked well as long as the collar was on, especially the one dog, she KNEW when it was off and she totally took advantage.

Do they keep shocking once they cross the boundary or is it one shock and they are free to run? I live in a neighborhood with lots of other pets & kids I'm scared my dog will feel the stimulation and run the opposite direction. She is already a runner & a houdini. She gets out of our fence ALL THE TIme. This is our last hope.

[@hystericalstares7507]

They keep getting shocked near the boundary, however, once they get too far away, it stops. They won't be shocked on re-entry.

We are in the same boat and just had our patched fence destroyed by hurricane Ian. Our pair of sisters got out and ran for almost 2 hours before I found them 1/2 mile from our house and about 400' from a major road. They were still running away from home when I found them. This is our only hope until the insurance cuts a check. Just wondering what luck you had, hope it's going great!

[@lanasmiley5643]

You're worries are well founded! I would never trust these systems.

How far away from the fence does it zap? We have one too, but haven’t installed it. Because we are unsure how close it gets to the wire before it zaps. Thanks

[@GrandmaSezSo]

Do you put the flags real close to the buried line? Where is the best place to put flags in conjunction with the wire?

[@redners11]

You can, yes. The collar should give your dog a warning beep when it is getting close to the wire, without an actual shock. After my dogs were trained, they stayed about 10 ft inside the actual wire perimeter. This is good but keep in mind it will also shrink the yard-space about inside of where you bury the wire.

[@tekearnsiii]

true story, my dog was trained on an e-collar, she hates the vibrate more than shock mode

[@roseanneworfolk4680]

So my dog got a shock during the summer and even though we took the collar off for two and a half months when we put it back on as soon as he heard the noise he will not go back to the backyard again. We only have it set at vibrate and bell at this time and we do not plan on increasing it but we can't get him in the yard. Can anybody give me some advice.

Is it normal the correction stops after a few seconds when the dog/collar is off boundary ?

My dog knows the boundaries without a fence & the only time he doesn't obey them is if he sees another dog, so training won't be an issue. But upon seeing another dog he will bolt. He did this once & that was enough. If he's running toward the fence at a rate of speed, will it stop him or will he just run through it? Thanks.

To be honest It is the only kind I have used. However, Wireless can work as well but they are not as customizable as an in-ground fence so it will depend on your property layout and what you want the borders to be. Here is a video I did that kinda goes over it kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJvHXmCegZJon7c

[@EasyBakersLLC]

Thanks so much for the video.

[@oipunkguy]

Hello Max. Letting you what you did wrong. You trained your pup to the boundary and used negative reinforcement, instead of training your dog to the safe areas and use positive reinforcement. What you did after the initial training was a good approach, but you could have saved yourself a big headache and stress for the dog if you took am approach like I described. I know the manual for the system you bought explains how to do the training like you described, but it’s a methodology that was discarded by the professionals since in the 1980’s.

[@xMav44]

tip: don't put it in front yard because all your neighbors will hate you for exactly the reason stated above. They charge the line and people that don't know the dog or trust the invisible fence are supposed to know/trust the dog will stop? Most bark every time you go by.. making your own dogs crazy, really sucks. I've seen a mom pushing a stroller almost dump the kid out trying to get away. I just think it is really irresponsible and selfish to have a invisible fence road side if you are just going to leave it out there for long stretches. (at least in a neighborhood with sidewalks and frequent foot traffic.)

If you live in the chicago land area I can help you with the installation and proper training of any dog fence you want to get. I have over 20 years of experience in the industry

[@ihelpdogs]

Go one better and just build a fence. An invisible fence doesn't stop other animals from entering your yard to attack your dog. And face it, an invisible fence won't stop your dog from crossing the boundary if a really good distraction walks by ie a cat, a squirrel, a deer etc. It doesn't matter how well the dog is trained, it does happen.

It works for my beagle, she never gets out unless the fence is down. A physical fence is certainly ideal, but not something attainable for me sadly.

[@raicebannon1936]

Unless you have acres of property -- I agree build a fence. I tire of walking my dog and morons let out their untrained "rescue" dog that runs right through their electric fence and attacks my dog. If your dogs jump your fence -- they need training. The humane society should not let people adopt dogs that do not have fences.

Everyone should use invisible fence brand only. Lifetime warranty and they teach the dog professionally how to understand the system. So many dogs get “porched” based on improper training. Spend the money and get the best system out there or you will traumatize your animal.

[@stephenmathai6841]

Scott Schaefer How did the process go of the in-home consultation, installation, and training go for you? Are there extra costs that come with having the system Seems like a great solution. If you don’t mind sharing, how much did you pay for all of it?

[@scottschaefer2086]

Stephen Mathai to be completely honest I work for the invisible fence brand. I am an installer. We have tons of happy customers because our team cares about the customer and their animal. It is a partnership between everyone. The dogs life is at risk if we don’t take it seriously. Our systems range in cost. The lowest priced system is 1,800. Still a good system for many many dogs but dogs that are persistent on trying to escape the system I would recommend the more expensive one. Roughly 2,800. It includes lifetime warranty on everything, the training of the animal, no matter how many trainings it takes, and access to our amazing customer service reps. No hidden cost. Only extra cost would be if someone breaks the line and we have to repair it that will cost under 150. Obviously I am biased but family members and friends of mine have purchased the system and love it. We are proud of our product and love doing what we do. We are the inventors of invisible fence and we lead the industry. Thanks!

[@stebanmendez8229]

Wow 2,800 for an invisble fence that's a rip off!

[@scottschaefer2086]

Steban Mendez I would have to respectfully disagree and I know many of our customers would disagree also. We do very large properties and if they were to build a cedar fence it would cost between $20-40,000. Even small fences cost thousands.
