I wanted to know would this work on keeping a 20 lb outside dog out of the inground fenced area i have set up for my house dog.

Yes it works very well for what you are looking to do. we have two large 45 pound dogs and have them restricted from a area of the lawn and chicken coop/ run.

The collar that came with the underground fence system would not keep our 80 pound boxer inside, but with the super collar, she stays put. It should do the trick for you. Hope so. Good luck!

Yes, this is collar has a very strong shock that will keep much larger dogs in. It works on stubborn dogs.

The receiver that is in the picture would definitely work. The one shown is for stubborn dogs. I have a 90lb German Shepherd that wears that collar. If you have a 20lb dog, you may want to try the other version of the collar. Also if your dog has short hair, you may want to use the small "prongs". If the dog has long hair, use the longer "prongs". Ken

Yes, if I understand correctly. A 20lb dog wearing this unit would not cross the 'line' of the fence. The only problem I see is that the unit might be big for a dog of that size. Our golden is 75lbs and she ignored the smaller units but backs away when she hears the warning beep of this receiver. Hope that helps.

Hi Lisa M. Yes it works on almost all dogs..Some of the really huge dogs it might not stop them from going across the wire and may require two of these collars set on the highest setting, you want to remember if your dog does cross the boundaries you have set out, you always set the collar on a higher setting. For bigger dogs I start my setting on Three, and then if he's stubborn I'll raise it two four, and then you still have five.. After he's had the collar on for three to six months, and he learns the warning sound before the shock, you can try turning it down some. Hope this helps you out.. Hi Lisa M.

For it to be tight you need areas to hook bungee cords. It will not keep a persistent dog back. For my dogs I still must remind them, from time to time, to stay back.

Not sure what you are asking. We installed ours as a prefence to our wood fence. It works well...dog doesn't get near it. If your dogs jump on fence it should work.

It should. Some breeds are more difficult to keep within the boundaries, but this collar will work with the vast majority of pups. If there is a problem, this collar can be adapted with longer prongs (may be included with collar) to be certain the prongs have the proper contact to work effectively. We have had in-ground fences for 20 years now & love them & the freedom they have given our best friends.

It would not work well as a dog barrier. Even when stretched out, the net is somewhat stretchy and very flexible. You would want something a little more solid for your dog's safety.

I use it for a 16 month old Great Dane who weighs 105 lbs, does this help you?It only stops her from barking, I use a prong collar when we are out walking

yes, it is good to keep your dog in a certain area, or if you have company or puppies. I think it would get rusty very fast if used outside. also if you need to keep the dog off the furniture when you are away, you can open it up and use it as a fenced area to keep the dog away from the furniture. it comes apart very easily and put back together easily and in different shapes

it should. It keeps the birds and my puppy out of the garden. However when it rains it doesn't work as well. You need to keep the power source out of the direct weather.

Not sure.....I would think it should be OK. Mine runs along a metal chhain link fence for 20' with no negative impact. Hope this helps. BTW, my pup is very "mild-tempered" and the first time it "zapped" him, I had it set at "4" and he was very terrified of the thing....he weighs about 45 pounds.....I set the thing down to 2 and he "respected" that for a couple of months but then decided he could "break through" as it didn't "jolt" him as bad, or bad enough to keep him from wanting to follow us as we were walking away from th house......we DO have a 3 foot concrete block wall he had to go over to follow us, too. I now it set at 3 and that seems to be working now for over a month again. I believe that should be adequate as he has "tested" it twice and has not braved his way past.......I also have the thing set so it gives the warning beeps a few feet before the zapping effect.

Myra, It will work outside, but it will be less effective if there is a breeze. Also, you may want to think about the constant exposure of insecticide to your dogs. We have dogs also, so we use fly traps we get at Home Depot outside. They work pretty well and they're safer for the dogs.

It has worked very well for me. I stick it different places using velcro to keep my dog out. It has trained him very well.

It should work but will be weaker wire. Also depends on the distance your covering. Your just sending a radio signal that the collar responds to through the wire

I use on a 20 lb dog and it's fine. Just had to make adjustments to the collar.

Yes. My dog is over 100 lbs. As long as the probes are touching her skin properly, the fence works. You can turn the power up and down depending on how much "juice" they need.

That's kind of the idea of it - to keep dogs out of a circular area around the rock. It's won't work as a fence to keep dogs IN that circle, only out of it. How well it works as a fence to keep your dog out of the circle depends on your dog, whether he or she is already trained with an electric collar, and how much he or she cares about the beeps & small shocks. It won't work as well as a real solid fence, but my dog (who was already trained to our underground fence) gives the rock a wide berth, even if her toys get close to it. She'll wait as I go inside the circle and get the toys for her, because she does not like the shock and she knows how to avoid getting it.

I bought this to stop my next door neighbors dogs from barking and it seems to work. When they start barking I just walk over to the fence and raise my arm up over the fence and push the button and they stop barking. So it may work for you but I guess it depends on the dog etc. on how well.

It might. It did not stop my dig from jumping the fence. But it did keep my cousins dog from wondering too far off on the beach.
