Welcome to our Pets of Invisible Fence® Brand blog series, where we share stories of pets who graduated our Perfect Start™ Plus Training program to roam their yard securely and happily. This week, Invisible Fence of the Triad shares how Otis the Labrador Retriever uses an Invisible Fence outdoor containment system to keep him from roaming outside his yard.

First, learn about training Labs to use Invisible Fence

Many people ask, "Can you train Labs to use Invisible Fence?" The answer is YES! With our Perfect Start™ Plus training, we can train dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, sizes and temperaments to use our system - including Invisible Fence training for Labs.

According to American Kennel Club, Labs are known to be devoted, intelligent, and enthusiastic companions who want to be included in all the family activities. They are easy to train, high-spirited, and love to play.

Here is Otis's story!

Otis is a two-year-old Lab who loves to chase balls - so much so that he even has a favorite ball to chase! He and his dog mom, Carolyn live in a small town in North Carolina. Other than playing with his favorite ball, Otis also enjoys playing with chew toys.

Why did Otis's parents contact Invisible Fence of the Triad?

Carolyn wanted to make sure Otis didn't roam near their road or into a neighbor's property. Keeping him safely contained in his own yard would help give Carolyn great peace of mind. 

Carolyn contacted her local Invisible Fence Dealer for a quote and to find out more about outdoor containment solutions.

How did Invisible Fence of the Triad help Otis stay in his yard?

Invisible Fence of the Triad was able to help both Otis and Carolyn find an outdoor containment system was the best for them. When it comes to outdoor containment, there are multiple solutions. Outdoor containment solutions allow you to create a protected space for your pet to help keep them from chasing cars, roaming the neighborhood or running off. Whether that is with a Wired, Smart or GPS Wireless system, there is a solution to help anyone and any breed.

"No worries when I’m at work. He’s always there when I get home. The best investment [you] could ever make. 100 percent satisfied." - Carolyn
