Underground electric fencing for dog can be very popular with some people. This fencing can work well for some dogs and not well for others. Here are some things to consider when deciding what kind of fencing to use for your dog.

1) Some dogs will run through an electric fence simply because what they want to chase is worth taking the shock to them. My aunts Husky and German Shepherd mix is a perfect example of this. She will not run through the fence when she sees cats but when she sees a raccoon my aunt has to track her down and get her back home.

2) If the power goes out your electric fence will no longer work.

3) Is your dog a large dog? If you have people walking by your house and your dog starts running towards them then stops suddenly before the electric fence it can freak people out expecially if they don't know you have an electric fence.

4) Electric fences do not keep other potentially aggressive dogs out of your yard.

5) People who are a potential danger to your dog are not going to be kept out of your yard due to an electric fence.
