Another consideration on invisible fencing, is that while your dog may stay 
inside the boundry (not necessarily a pyr mind you), it doesn't prohibit all 
the neighbor's dogs, or sundry strays, from coming in the yard.  Not only 
could these dogs bully your dog, but if they are strays, or owned by people 
who don't really care, could be the carriers of wonder diseases such as 
parvo, mange, or at worse, rabies.  For this reason too, I prefer my 4' board 
and anti-climb wire fence - not some invisible fence.

Just my 2c worth....Robyn, with Zoe, Kes and Tanuki who know very well what 
the fence means, and Baron who has NO respect for it :-)
