They are very gentle and sweet.
This one was my client and one of the dogs I'm referring to when I talk about invisible fences going wrong.
She came as a rescue with some
possible neurological damage, we think. Wouldn't be able to execute any of the types of behaviors you're talking about. But still very well behaved and docile. Affectionate etc.
We'd classify her as clumsy and dorky I guess. Not really connecting with "words" or subtleties.
But the fence came with the house and the owners, one an MD, even when doing the training correctly really really regretted it.
She would ONLY go to the bathroom around the foundation shrubbery up near the house and about 3 feet further into the grass.
It took us a year or so for her to come out of the garage and down the driveway without being afraid she'd get zapped.
THEN she eventually would TAKE OFF like a bat out of hell in the back yard into the creek and get soaking muddy wet IF she "thought" she saw a bird in the sky in that direction. LOL
DORKY.
The spirit was willing but the body was not cooperating.
Thankfully, she grew to love walks.
