This Farmer’s Biggest Challenge; CContaining her Livestock Guardian Dogs

A SpotOn customer shares her biggest challenge as a farmer - finding a way to keep her two Livestock Guardian dogs home, contained on the farm. These Livestock Guardian Dogs need their freedom to keep predators away, but are also known for wandering away for hours at a time, and can get themselves into dangerous situations. After 3 years of trying different solutions, all of which failed to keep her LGDs home, she finally discovered and succeeded with SpotOn GPS dog fence.

Thank you! Loved your video! I'm starting with my Colorado Mountain Dog and hoping for the same results!

Loved this collar for the 3 weeks before it became damaged. The power button is a weak point on the front of the collar. It is in a vulnerable area on the front of the collar and damage to that button cover will compromise the waterproof nature of the collar. Damage to this button cover will most likely not be covered by warranty as it is easy to say it’s punctured by dog damage. If this button was less vulnerable, I would love it. However, everyday dog activity will damage this button and you will be charged at least $150 to fix it. Major flaw in design as the power button is rarely used and could have been sunken on the back where it would be less prone to damage.

I agree this is a wonderful collar. Our Pyr respected the collar until winter. I have been seeing that some people are shaving the area so the contacts touch the skin. How do you handle the double coat?

[@spotonfence]

We'd recommend using our longer set of prongs. If the hair is still too thick to make contact, you could shave the area down where the prongs are going to sit so that contact can be made.

Trying an e-collar because our LGD keeps going across the road to the neighbors and destroying their Amazon packages and seasonal yard decor... I've been paying them for destroyed crap pretty much weekly...
