If you have a dog and a fenced-in yard, this helps your furry companion with better overall health as it provides him the ability to be outdoors, exercise and have a consistent marked territory.
On the other hand, if you do not have a fenced yard, this is where the invisible fencing comes into play. Other than the shock factor that your pet will adapt to, this is a fantastic option.
This has been a common choice for pet owners for many years; however, the cost for a system is expensive as it averages $1,200 from my research.
The main difference is choosing between the wired and wireless option. The wireless is more expensive and they can be harder to set especially with pro installation and wires can break and be difficult to fix due to tree roots and underground obstacles.
The biggest hurdle for the wireless is that it may have difficulty tailoring to the shape of the yard’s boundary.
So what choice do you make? To me, wireless is the best option.
As for me, I found a refurbished system for $250 from a reputable company. I set up the flags and my dog was trained by the second day. In addition, I have an acre of land and have not incurred an incident with boundary limits and my dog couldn’t be happier.

- It is less expensive
- You can adjust the boundary settings with a turn of a dial
- You can take the system to any location, plug it in and you are ready to go
