Comment to 'Fencing Questions'
  • Have you considered an above ground electric fence? The kind with posts and visible ribbon. We have this to keep the house dogs in the backyard. Usually you only really need to have it on for a little while until they get zapped a time or two, and then they don't try it again. I have dogs that range from 10 yrs to 3 yrs, and they respect the fence. We have it set up so that I can open a section like a gate and go out with them if I want to. YOu can also redesign the area contained if needed. Best of all, since there is a visible ribbon for both dogs and visitors to see, everyone knows their boundaries. A Cane Corso breeder had this set up, and showed it to me. You can get the materials, including the box, at most local farming supply type stores.
