Outside? There are hundreds of options, what specifically are you looking for? If the dog is outside, make sure it is heated and cooled sufficiently.
Depending on the breed of dog and its temperament, the "invisible fence" is a great option where other conventional fences are not aesthetically desirable. The invisible fence is an electronic barrier that activates a mild electric shock from the collar when approaching a designated boundary. The boundary is made with a thin wire buried underground around the perimeter of the area in which you intend to designate for your dog(s) to stay. Some say the shock is an inhumane training method but I say it's more humane than letting your beloved pet be killed by an automobile or stolen by someone who will inflect a lifetime of cruelty/abuse upon your pet. https://www.amazon.com/Dog-Fence-Underground-Professional
