Worked for all but my most naughty dog
Pros: worked for 3 out of 4 dogs
Cons: did not work for 1 out of 4 dogs

Three of my dogs immediately understood and did not press the issue...the fourth, my naughty naughty whippet Aspen, learned that if she took a run and jumped fast, it only hurt for a second-hardly enough to resist the urge to runrunrunrunrun down the street! However, for most dogs I believe this would be highly effective in situations where a solid fence is not a possibility.
*As a side note...for those dogs that do 'make the leap'...they will likely be unable to return to their own yards; while the urge to leave is enough to withstand the brief discomfort, there is likely nothing in the yard quite so enticing and therefore not nearly worth being owie-d over.

Personally I wouldn't trust the electric fence for a sighthound. There is only that tiny shock to stop them from getting out and chasing a bunny or squirrel down the street and once they get out, they won't want to come back. I would never trust my IG with the electric fence, I much prefer a 6' privacy fence. No way he can get out and no way no other animal, or person, can get in and injure/steal him.
