invisible fence

we actually cut a narrow channel in the driveway, and ran a PVC pipe through it, with the invisible fence wire inside the pipe, then poured new cement into the channel.

Oooh!  I have questions too!!
 
We're thinking of running this inside our current fence.  (We have chain link and they "stand" up on the front of the fence and bark over.  I thought this would keep them in the yard.  Plus it would keep them away from the back fence with the annoying barking dogs...)
 
You have to run it around the whole perimeter correct?  How much yard would I lose?  If I just wanted it to be in the front and the back (not down the sides) can I do that?  Also - If I have to run a full perimeter ... how do I get them in and out of the yard without their collars going off?  (We have to go out the side door and take them around the back to the gate.  We don't have a door to the back yard.)  Do I take them out and then put their collars on once they're "safe"?
 
Our house is in the middle of our lot.  The "dog yard" is behind the house and wraps around right up to about 5' from the sidewalk at the front.  So it's a side-back yard. 
 
Thanks so much!!

Normally drive ways have creases in them, unless you have black top.  I just run the line down the crease and caulk the top of it.
 
You do need to go all the way around the yard (you have to complete the circuit somehow).  It is possible to just do the back and side yard.  I would encompass the part that goes to the side door some how.  You are going to really tired of taking those collars on and off.
 
To get the dogs out you have to remove the collar.  I normally place them in the mail box.  I have done it so many time, that unless the dogs actually see me place the collar in the mailbox the will not cross the line.

Hello all - We have Moriarty's Invisible fence as well as a fence acre lot. We have wooded area that we used just the wire fence to keep wild animals out and decided to install the invisible fence to keep our dogs out of the woods. The driveway can be cut by a chop saw and you can't tell the line is even there. As far as looping you're entire yard to keep them away from your chain link it is possible and you will  loose depending on the setting of the collars about 4 to 6 feet. See if you already have a fence and the invisible fence is just to keep them away from the chain link. You can have the collar beep within 3/4 feet away from the chain link before they get a correction. As far as keeping them away from the sides of the house that is poosible too, they can do a loop, just like some people have garden loops in the middle of the yard to keep the dogs out of their gardens and so on.  

We recently had them change the boundaries of our IF. We had them run the fence line up one side of the driveway and then across so the fence crosses the middle of the driveway, not at the end. That way it created a no dog zone for when the kids are getting dropped off or when people pull into the driveway to turn around and that sort of thing.
 
Our dogs wil not go out of the yard unless we take the collar off and leave it in the same spot just outside the garage door. And they will only go out of the yard in one spot when they know the collars are off.

LOL I don't think you mean a chop saw! I don't know how you'd get the driveway up on the toolbench! [sm=rofl.gif][sm=rotfl.gif]
