Dobermans are one of the easiest dogs in the world to perimeter train...just comes natural to a lot of them.
- only takes some basic training (quality time), if need be

Right now your dog does not trust you & rightfully so.
- time to trash the e-collar in the garbage and get back to some fun loving attention time...together
- technology gizmos can be very damaging, in the hands of inexperience
Sorry you wasted a good dollar or two, but you are not helping your mutual relationship with your pet any.
- by continuing with the "shock" therapy treatment

I train my dogs, first sitting on the living room floor.
ALL LOVE, PLAY & STRUCTURED GAMES ------> equals mental stimulation, trust & building of loyalty.

My dog is aware of my every movement...and will not separate herself from me beyond 50-100 feet.
If I go into the house, for a few minutes, she is by the side door...go to the garage, and come out, her eyes are still focused on me.

Go to another location...she instinctively knows the imaginary boundaries of the new lot.
I just don't get why anyone needs an "Invisible Fence"...with one of the smartest dog breeds, on the planet.
- preliminary training solves much and takes some effort (I look at it as a labor of love...just like a gratifying hobby)
