Instructions
Install the fence into the ground. This way there is absolutely no space between the fence and ground. When you install the fence, dig a deep groove and place the fence into it. Pack dirt around the fence once it's installed. You are essentially burying the fence so it extends a few inches into the ground. As a result, your dog will not be able to easily dig a hole under it.
Consider an underground electric fence. And electric wire is placed 3 to 5 inches beneath ground level. The dog wears an electric collar which delivers a safe, gentle shock if he attempts to cross the fence wire.
Pour concrete along the base of the fence. The dog will not be able to dig into the concrete, effectively keeping her from escaping under the fence.
Place chicken wire at the bottom of the fence, along the ground. Use a staple gun to attach the chicken wire to a wooden fence. Opt for plastic or wire ties to attach it to a chain-link or metal fence. Dogs cannot dig through chicken wire and its pointy ends will irritate the dog's legs if he tries to dig through it.
Keep your dog on a long leash while in the yard. Make the leash long enough that she can fully roam within the yard. She can enjoy the freedom of the yard but will be secured if she tries to escape under the fence.
