It's now more of a safety hazard than not, and it must come down this summer.And boy does she like to run.  Without the fence, she'd run all over the neighborhood chasing squirrels and birds, without a thought for traffic.  At that point, chasing after her is a game of hide and seek tag -- she runs just far enough ahead so you can't catch but not so far that she's out of sight. It's a worrisome thing for us when she does this.For the past few months, she's been relegated to being tied up to a long rope in the back yard, when she wants to go outside.  She doesn't really like it, and neither do we.  It'll be a few years before we can buy our own house and put up a fence, so we've been considering interim alternatives.I've started doing some research into "invisible fences", though my wife and are having mixed feelings about it.  We'd appreciate any additional thoughts and experiences on the subject from you guys.</blockquote>
