We live in the mountains and have 4 acres. We would to install invisible fencing on 3 of the acres to keep our bull mastiff male safe from wondering off. Any thoughts or suggestions?

I have the stay and play for my EM. I love it!
I’m on 3 acres and this gives my girl about 1 and 1/2 acres to play on. I got it because of the coyote pack behind my home and the road. If you do have go and use this you’re going to need to put it on the highest setting.
April is right Mastiffs have very thick skin.
I know this because my Vet has to use needles that are meant for pigs and cows. The needles they normally use on large breeds just wasn’t penetrating her skin.
Sheila, I have a question. So you put the setting on high to keep your girl inside the fencing area, but don't you still worry about other animals coming in? That would be just as much of a concern to me.

Oh and also I really don't worry about another animal attacking her in our yard anymore....
Now that I have seen what she can do.....
My dad's last dog, Hogan killed a bear. Dad use to live on the foot of the Rocky Mountains. He came home one day and found all these little pieces of black hair/fur... Dad said that Hogan and shredded the bear so badly he didn't know what it was except that he neighbour came over and told dad he watched the whole seen from his kitchen window.
Woah!! Don't mess with Hogan!! Bet your dad was impressed. Bet the neighbors thought, "Oh NO! That bear is gonna kill Hogan!", then Hogan surprised the hell out if em! I'm sure Bella could hold her own, and your not leaving her out all night..
I would worry about other animals coming in the boundary if leaving a young dog or puppy out all night.
That’s what I mean, heaven forbid Gus or Georgia have to go through that but if they had no choice then I would want a robust dog. About two years ago Georgia treed a black bear right behind our house. She was barking up a storm, the bear came down the tree and just sat there and slapped its lips at her then turned and gingerly just walked away. I even shot a gun over the bears back twice thinking it would add a little giddy up in its step, nope, just eased on its way.Oh and also I really don't worry about another animal attacking her in our yard anymore....

That's why dad got into the EMs because of he bears coming to the back door....and the Bears wanted more then a picnic basket.... EMs have been know to take down a Bengal tiger.
whats an EM? I googled em dog, all it comes up with is cannabis strains lol
Interesting stories, Sheila. I‘ve heard similar things, but nobody could really provide any facts. I‘m not saying you are wrong, but I just cannot see any dog being a match for a tiger. They are way too big, fast, strong, and definitely built to kill.
How did your dad‘s EM fight that bear?
