Do you have to use a leash or can this be put on a dog in the yard to keep him from jumping the fence?

Only with a leash. The leash is what actually causes the tension to keep the dog from pulling.

No, it is designed to be worn as a second collar, close to the skin (snug) as it is activated by friction with the skin-Our dogs wear their regular collars with tags as well. I believe it is designed as a breakaway, so don't attach a leash, etc.

No - there is no hooks/eyelets to attach a leash though you could probably put a harness over it. ;)

Yes, it would definetly work for that situation, and really you wouldn't have to put it into the ground if you didn't want too. It states in the manual that the fence can be applied above ground, but either way you wouldn't have to worry about that doggie getting out anymore. My dogs will go no where near the boundry line.

I am not an advocate of tying dogs in yards and I wouldn't use this harness for that purpose. It is good for leash walking, with the handle you can easily control your dog, if a situation should arise.

I dont think so, I have my dog wear his collar and his leash is attached to that and not to the vest.

I would say yes if you can just hook the leash to the leader. A Leader teaches a dog not to pull....the leash would just be an extension to that. Good luck

Just use a piece of thread. Run it through the hole and then use it to pull the leash.

There is another collar that comes with this leash. You can wrap the collar around the collar that is on your dog so if they were to pull, ther is an extra one as a helper. as a saftey one, so ass not to break your collar

If you are talking about stopping your dog from leaving your unfenced yard, I doubt it. It will probably make him leave. If you are talking about stopping a dog from entering your yard (leaving the neighbors unfenced yard), probably. I chase the neighbors dog out of my yard with it all the time.

Yes, for sure, however that seems like a huge waste of wire. There must be a more efficient way to do it. You can do a double wire (spaced 5' apart) across the area where you have no fence, then twist the wire and go directly back to the house where - you don't need to twist it and follow the fence all the way around. Also, if you're using "Yardmax mode" the dog can go right up to the wire without the warning going off. In some cases, you can't use that mode, so it may not apply to you.

I bought it for the lifting and supporting and did not try on a leash. It can be used that way but as already suggested, it might slip a bit for other than a calm walk. I don't think it is intended to aid in controlling a dog on a leash.

not really. should only be used with a leash. give and take gently. it should never be left on dog if your not walking him or doing some training. hope this helps

I got mine hoping it would keep my dog from pulling on the leash...It didn't work for me because it would get to tight on her neck...I'm not sure if it will keep your dog from climbing the fence wish I could be more helpful..

It is not a good idea to tie a dog out unsupervised. As the other reviewers mention, the dog can chew through the nylon, can get wrapped up in and around anything within the radius of the leash, and the clip on the leash can stick open from "working" by the collar loop; all resulting in a loose and unattended pet. A fenced run is usually a better answer. Agression issues are often generated from tied dogs too. Talk to a trainer to verify.

My dog always pulls and she has power. With this leash, she would stop and walk so gentle with the slightest of tension. She also loves other dogs and to jump and see what people are carrying. This prevented her pulling and from jumping as well. I say it is a great option for your situation.

Pam, He will not get shocked if he stays still or moves away from the fence. I installed the fence myself, using bigger wire because the fence couldn't be buried in some places, and I didn't want to risk a break. Both dogs did get shocked once or twice, but not more. Now, I don't even turn on the fence; they know their boundaries and can play in the yard without leaving it. I don't leave them unattended in the yard because the fence doesn't keep other dogs or predators out.
