Frequently Asked Questions
Will it work in my garden?
Yes. The PetSafe
®
Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence
™
system works in gardens up to 10
acres (400 ares). Additional wire and flag kits may need to be purchased. These are
sold separately.
Will it hurt my pet? No. The Static Correction is delivered when your pet crosses the established
boundary. It is designed to get your pet’s attention, but not punish him. This method
has been proven safe and will not harm your pet.
Can my children get hurt? No. The Static Correction is produced by the Contact Points on the Receiver Collar,
not the Boundary Wire. With proper use, the system is safe for all.
I have a small pet and a large
pet; will this work for me? Yes. Since the PetSafe
®
Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence
™
system provides adjustable
Static Correction, it is safe and effective for pets over 3.6 kg (8 lb). The system
includes one Receiver Collar; additional Receiver Collars are sold separately.
Can I use the system with an
existing fence?
Yes. The system can be used with an existing fence if you have a problem with your
pet digging under or jumping over a traditional fence.
How often will my pet receive
a Static Correction?
When trained properly, most pets will only receive a few Static Corrections during
normal usage.
How old does my pet have to
be before starting training on
the PetSafe
®
Stubborn Dog
In-Ground Fence
™
system?
Because all pets are different, training on this system can be started once your pet
can learn basic obedience commands like “sit” and “stay”. The system should only be
used with pets who are over 6 months of age. If your pet is injured or its mobility is
otherwise impaired, contact your veterinarian or professional trainer before use.
Troubleshooting
Receiver Collar is not beeping
or correcting. • Check battery to make sure it is installed properly.
• Check that both lights are lit on the Fence Transmitter. If not, perform the “Short
Loop Test”.
The Receiver Collar is
beeping, but the pet is not
responding to the Static
Correction. • Make sure the Static Correction Level is set to level 2, 3, 4 or 5.
• Test the Receiver Collar with the Test Light walking toward the Boundary Wire.
• If the Test Light flashes, check the fit of the Receiver Collar.
• Trim your pet’s fur where the Contact Points touch the neck and/or use the longer
Contact Points included in the system.
• Increase the Static Correction Level.
• Repeat training steps to reinforce training.
