I was wondering if anyone else has Invisible Fence for their Potcake? Turk is 10mo. old now and has had the Invisible fence since he was about 4 - 5 months...
Yes, we have one and it works great. Chloe doesn't even have her collar on 1/2 the time any more and she still stays in the yard. Don't be afraid to turn it...
Thanks for this info. I will be talking to the Invisible Fence people today, so I will tell them another Potcake has theirs turned up all the way. Turk is 62...
I think there is nothing more cruel than the invisible fence. According to my vet it borders on animal abuse. Fencing your yard may be a much more humane...
Ann, Though everyone has a right to their opinion - I think your email was a bit harsh and only founded on one suggestion from your vet. I don't think that...
I still think it is cruel...would you do it to your child? If you would not do it to your child, why would you do it to your pet. I am merely giving another...
Well, the bottom line is that we DO have the Invisible Fence system already and it DOES NOT interfere with my GPS system, and it IS endorsed by my vet AND our...
Yikes! one would think that people are ignorant and aren't looking at pros and cons and alternative ideas and suggestions based on your attack. The bottom...
I am not putting anyone down. I am merely giving an opinion. Trying to make people think about options. If dogs like the electric shock and owners are...
I wasn't going to respond to this b/c you continue to insinuate that those people including myself that are CONSIDERING the fence are doing so without thinking...
I agree with Ann. I understand that these things become accepted as normal but I still think electric shock is the wrong way to go. I am not here to fight,...
Hi Fran's dad. I have this invisible fence at our home in CT, due to property rules in the lake community, and the only thing I have found is my older dog Zack...
WOW... Quite the Hullabalou on this topic. Everyone has their own experience and I shall share mine... We had electric fence--NOT INVISIBLE but VERY visible...
I really did not want to start a BIG debate on this topic...sorry it turned in to one. I just wanted to get my point across that there are options. And for...
Fran is now about 1 1/12 years old and now about 55 lb. She has grown in to a very big head strong potcake. She has become a well adapted to a life in New York...
Our Luna is also 1 1/2 years old and the joy of our life! She is definately a "bush" dog being that she loves to run under the shrubs and trees as well as...
What if a child walks through an invisible fence? Do they get shocked? I imagine this would be illegal in California, but maybe I¹m wrong. I¹m interested...
No - the child would not be hurt - the dog wears a collar that has a transmitter on it that emits a very quick pulse of energy causing them to back away and...
Hmmm pulse of energy... I like that term...however it is a SHOCK that the dog receives. It is very close to static electricity. Thing is, you can increase...
You have to wear the collar to get shocked, so unless your child puts the collar on, they will not get shocked. My husband held it and went through the fence...
Where in NYC do you live? We live in Staten Island and have a one year old Potcake which we adopted from Freeport, Bahamas. We also have a 1 1/2 year Bich-Poo...
EXACTLY--My dog NEVER has the collar on any more. When she does have it on, it BEEPS FIRST to warn them--no shock. If you don't have helpful replys for people...
Chloe just got a little sister too!!! My daughter wanted a Yorkie and Chloe is so loving with her. She really likes having the puppy around. She even does...
I COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF! AND TO ROBIN ---I DON'T NEED TO TRY IT MYSELF BECAUSE I AM SATISFIED WITH MY DECISION TO USE THE ELECTRIC FENCE AS OUR ...
Congratulations on Chloe's new little sister! Our Grover's "big" sister is a yorkie. I'm sure our walks in the neighborhood these days cause some laughs....
I just looked at your new pictures of Fran. She's very pretty. The one of her belly up on the couch is almost identical to one I took of Grover the other...
That is so funny! I have a 62 pound 10 month old Potcake and a 3 year old Shitzu-Yorkie. I have resorted to having Turk, our Potcake, pull me on the ...
I'm so glad we're not the only ones taking a little yorkie on walks with the big dog!! The little dog doesn't give up!!! Sometimes we carry her just for her...
