No dig fencing to keep dogs in yard
Posted on 4/14/26 at 6:06 pm

My dogs have determined that the temporary shock of the electric fence is worth the price of chasing geese through the neighborhood.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a no-dig fence brand that has multiple options for fence section lengths? The ones at Home Depot and Lowes all come with a single panel length which would lead to significant overlap/extra panel length to make the fence square and to block our carport.

you turned the collars all the way up to deep fat fry? Just asking…my dogs are maniacs that listen to nobody and they don’t even approach the perimeter
some dogs have a higher threshold though. No experience with anything else, mine even kept a bloodhound in the yard

It’s at level 45/45. Not sure why they chose 45 but that’s where it’s at

I solved this by getting lazier dogs...
It's the only way

My neighbor across the road had a base station that had an area that allowed the dog to roam. If he breached the perimeter it would shock and keep shocking until he got back inside the circle. His dog came to greet me one day and started screaming and kept screaming until I got to him and rushed him back. I felt terrible about it, but I don’t think he ever left again.
Note : do not forget to turn his collar off before loading him in the truck.

This is what we got for our escape artist beagle:

So far so good. It’s the only thing that’s worked so far.

I had 2 beagles that loved to get out by digging. I tried lots of things but I eventually hand dug about an 18-inch deep, drain spade in width trench inside the fenceline for about 180 feet of fence and filled it with quickcrete. 
It worked.
Also, my yard was basically ancient shoreline sand so I dug it in just a couple of hours.

I feel I need to clarify
No Dig fencing means I do not have to dig holes in the ground for the posts. Not that I’m trying to prevent my dogs from digging.

advice…hire an installer. They’ll have a machine that digs the trench, lays the wire and backfills in one pass. And tell them to use heavy gauge wire (not the thin green wire that comes with the system…throw that shite away)
Mine has been in the ground for 15 years no problems

With the digdefence, no digging, just a hammer or mallet to get it into the dirt. Goes down about 18” if I remember correctly. It can be a bit of a pita to install if you have a lot rocks in your soil. I did, but it wasn’t too bad.

At my old house I bought rolls of green vinyl wire,about 2 ft. wide,laid it out on ground with a few stakes to hold it down.Grass would go up through it,couldn’t tell it was there.
