How the System Works
A radio signal travels from the Fence Transmitter through a buried wire, marking the boundaries you wish to set for your dog.
Your dog wears a Receiver Collar that detects the signal at the boundary. As your dog approaches the boundary, the receiver
issues a warning tone and vibrates. If he proceeds further, he receives a safe but startling Static Correction. While harmless,
the correction will persuade him to stay in the containment area you’ve established. Boundary flags are a temporary visual
aid for your pet; remove them after training. This PetSafe
®
Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence
™
System has been proven safe,
comfortable, and effective for pets over 8 pounds.
