Oh, forgot to mention, the radio fence is attached to our perimeter field 
fence. (cattle fence, hogfence etc. with an electric strand along the top to 
keep horses from pawing it , leaning on it and  others from climbing over) 
The labs would dig under to get out of the fence and the terriers could 
sometimes squeeze thru the larger openings higher up or go out after the 
labs dug. So  we actually have a double fence...however outside dogs could 
still dig under  (one neighbors used too)--but I also have logs, rocks, and 
fiberglass rods and poles where they would make a hole. Pretty secure-- but 
not infalliable ;0)-- sooo we got the donkey---- he takes care of errant 
fence digging neighbor dogs, and enjoys it to boot!!!
