I live on a rental property and I am seriously considering getting an electric fence for my yorkie Brandy. The backyard is secure (sometimes she does dig out though) but the front yard is another issue. There is a gap in the gate that she can run through. Sometimes she doesn't listen to me or darts past when the other gate/door is open and runs through the gap in the fence. There is no way to block it.
She isn't listening to the come command as much anymore. We live on a busy street and I don't want her to get hit by a car like she almost did last time. The landlord refuses to fix the fence. So if it's between her getting hit or her getting a little jolt I know what I will pick. If she learns to come to me when I call her or stops running through the gap then I would take it off of her. |
