Usually the electric wireless fence is not portable as they do require a wire system that is underground. But there is a particular type of electric wireless dog fence which doesn’t need any wire system to be buried underground. This fence has a transmitter and a dog collar. The dog collar has a light weight receiver. This fence forms a circular fence which is the major way in which it differs from the other electric dog fences. This dog fence is useful when you do plan to travel with your dog. It is further useful for those dog owners who would like to do away with the trouble of fitting the wire system beneath the ground.

If you can’t build a fence from scratch, then you can always consider making a dog fence from pre-made sections. This allows for greater flexibility as you can change the size of the fence whenever you want to. To prevent dogs from digging under the fence and going over to the neighbour’s garden, fill the trench along the boundary with some concrete. The pre-made dog fence generally comes with a user manual and you just need to figure out which section goes where. You need to have the fence sections close enough to not let the smaller pups from squeezing their way out into the street. At the same time allowing for some viewing of the outside world.

Even the best trained dogs can be tempted to stray. The normal method of keeping a dog in a back yard is the old fashioned wooden, stone or wire fence. The problem is that dogs can dig under them, jump over them and a fence may not be to your liking. The invisible fence is a wire that is buried in the ground along the perimeter of your property. When a dog, wearing a special collar gets near the invisible fence, the collar receives a radio transmission and gives the dog an electric shock that will make it turn back. After a day or two of this the dog will learn that it cannot step outside your property.
