We’ve been debating between putting up a traditional fence or going with an underground system for our dog. Our property is a little wooded/sloped, so a physical fence would probably be a huge project and really expensive.

Curious how well the underground systems actually work long term, especially for active dogs or dogs that like to chase squirrels/rabbits. Also wondering if the training process is difficult or if most dogs pick it up pretty quickly.

Would love to hear recommendations or experiences from other CT dog owners.

We’ve been researching options because our dog keeps trying to chase squirrels and runners toward the street, and a traditional fence really isn’t practical for our property (big rocks and lots of dense trees on one side)

Would love to hear if anyone has had good experiences with local companies, especially when it comes to the installation and training side of things. Curious how well these systems actually work long term for active dogs.

Appreciate any recommendations or advice!

We’ve been looking into options because our dog has become a little too confident chasing squirrels toward the road 😅 Traditional fencing for our property would be crazy expensive, especially with the terrain (deep rocks and a bunch of trees I don't want to pay $4k to remove.)

Curious if anyone has had good experiences locally with underground dog fence companies, especially with training/support afterward. I’ve heard to steer clear of the big national brands. Looking local.

Would love any recommendations or advice from other dog owners in the area.
