We have used the petsafe underground system for about 18 years. I guess before I made any decisions, I wanted to ask if any of you have an invisible fence type system? What would you recommend? $2700 installed is insane, right? Or am I missing something? Again, though, I feel pretty confident that for $2400 in savings, I could install it. You can buy additional wire so that it can potentially cover up to 100 acres, but it does have to be installed. They had a SportDOG In-Ground fence with great reviews for about $240. In the interest of covering all of my bases, I also found one at Cabelas. This one looks like you have to install underground wires, and it only covers 1/3 of an acre, but how much space does one dog need–and I am kind of a do-it-yourself type gal anyway. Am I missing something–is the company we had come out really making over $2400 profit?! I also found an Innotek Basic In-Ground Pet Fencing System for about $95. It is wireless, covers up to 1/2 acre, and comes with everything except the training. I found a Petsafe Wireless Pet Containment System, which is an Amazon top seller for only $249.95. In an effort to do a little price comparisons, I hopped on Amazon. I almost fell off my chair when he told us it would costs us $2701 to have one installed…holy canolies, that is expensive! It broke down like this: $695 for the wire and labor to install it and another $1795 for a collar, a 1 year supply of batteries and a few training sessions plus tax. We had a representative from Invisible Fence come out the other day and give us a quote. ![]() Update: A big thank you to the suggestions left in the comment section.
