How the System Works

The PetSafe® In-Ground Fence™ has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for all pets over 6 months of age and those weighing up to 25 kg (55 lbs) with neck sizes 15-66 cm (6"-26"). The system works by producing a radio signal from the Fence Transmitter through up to 1200 m (4000 feet) of Boundary Wire. The Boundary Wire is buried or attached to a fixed object to enclose the Pet Area.You temporarily define the Pet Area with Boundary Flags for a visual aid in training your pet. Your pet wears a Receiver Collar with Contact Points that touch his neck, and, once trained, is allowed to roam freely in the Pet Area. When your pet reaches the Warning Zone, the Receiver Collar gives a warning tone. If your pet continues into the Static Correction Zone, a safe Static Correction will be delivered through the Contact Points to get his attention until he returns to the Pet Area.
