I started this thread because I am passionate about the protection of yorkies and was shocked to learn that some members here think it is okay to use electric fences when, as a dog trainer and lover, I am opposed to them.

They do cause aggression and other problems and there are many humane alternatives. The use of these devices on small breed dogs should not be allowed imo.
