I think electric/wireless fences have their place. I dogsit two Golden Retrievers, and they have a huge yard... the dogs are already very naturally inclined to stick by and I don't think they'd ever run, even without the fence. But the fence/collar is worn just for extra security. But again, they are big dogs, in a culdesac, nowhere near a main road.
Agreed! If you have to adapt the device to fit it shouldn't be used. OP I hope you check here there are so many alternatives.
