Yes we installed our own wire. We ran out and went to ace hardware and they recommended a wire which was a little bigger and said that was what others were using.
I had a two row AC notill planter at the time and I just pulled it around the yard with my son standing on the one row so it would slice thru the sod deeper then we laid the wire in it and let it go.
The invisible fence worked for about a year and we abandoned the idea even after I ordered a higher voltage shocker for big dogs. We have a lab collie mix and she is 52lbs. She learned if she ran thru the fence it wouldn't shock her as bad. So I cut a hole in the pole barn and built a fence outside the shed so she could stay in the shed yet go out to the pen. The shed is 40 x 60 and the outside pen is 20 x 40. She gets some exercise but is so happy to see us when we let her out after we get home from work.
I told my son if he pulled the wire out of the ground he could have the money from the copper. We he tried to pull up the wire but the grass roots have grown around it and it just kept breaking so he quit.
