I would build a fence. Those collars can do a lot of damage especially to a small dog. It also will not keep things from coming in your yard and attacking and killing your dog or people from taking your dog. The people I have known who have those electric fences have had there dogs take the shock a few times to go after something they really really wanted two had there dogs killed by getting hit by a car. I'm thinking its not really safe for your small child to be going out by there self either so maybe higher locks on the doors would also help.
