How  could your pet ever defend 
itself  against a pack of coyotes or  something like that? 


I, of course, agree with Cheyrl.  I solved the problem by  putting electric 
collars on all the coyotes. They stay out of the yard, and my  dogs stay in.
 
In truth, I am not a fan of electric fences for all the reasons others have  
stated.  I also don't like aversion training, (making pain for the dog to  
teach them a lesson), but I do understand the value. 
 
The best theory is to have a regular fence, then five or six feet inside  it, 
put an electric fence. That way your dogs don't fence fight, and the  
neighbor's dog, (and any lose coyotes) can't get into your yard.
 
I still insist on fenced yards for my puppies, but then again, Tedi makes  
all the decisions.  I do have my own opinions, and every day she lets me  know 
what it is.
