You\u2019ve considered the options and decided that in-ground fencing is the best for you and your dog. But now you\u2019re wondering if your dog is too big for the fence!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The answer? Nope!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The size of your dog isn\u2019t related to the success of your in-ground fence. No dog is too big for the fence, so let your Great Danes and Saint Bernards run wild! The success of an in-ground fence depends largely on training. If done correctly, the fence works every time no matter the breed or size of your dog. In fact, in-ground fencing is commonly seen as more effective with bigger dogs than traditional fencing. Why? Large dogs are known for climbing or jumping over wooden fences, which is a problem you will never have with in-ground fencing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Dogs can typically be trained on in-ground fencing within about three days. You (or a trainer) should walk the dog on a leash around the perimeter for 10-15 minutes each day. Completing perimeter laps will allow the dog to become familiar with boundary lines. Afterward, let them play in safe zones. They should be comfortable safely playing within a few feet of the boundary lines. Be sure you go slow with the initial training process. If your dog is rushed, he may get confused about boundary lines.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The ideal training time for dogs is 6 months or older. However, if a dog is especially confident in his development, training can be completed as early as 5 months. Never train any dog on in-ground fencing before 5 months, no matter how confident they may seem.<\/p>\n
