All well and good, Huntly, but the invisible fence (and it has it's uses)
does not keep OTHERS out of your yard and I think that is Becky's concern.
A kennel club member here had her yard invisible fenced and still did a
stupid thing. Her bitch was out when she was not completely out of season.
The club member was brought to the window by horrible yelping as a male dog
came into the yard and was dragging her bitch over the invisible fence by
the collar- not OK for her I hear lots of those "invisible fence "
stories.
