Before we begin
As you install and use your new fence system, remember these important tips:
Take time to plan
your layout.
It can take up to two days to properly plan and install the Classic In-Ground Fence
™
system. Choose a
weekend with good weather and consider asking a friend to help.
Follow the instructions in this guide to design and test your fence layout before burying the boundary
wire. If you need additional setup help, please call our friendly Customer Care team.
Fit the receiver
collar carefully.
Proper fit is essential to the effectiveness of the receiver collar and the safety of your pet. A receiver
collar worn too loosely will not correct your dog, but a receiver collar worn too tightly (or too long) may
irritate your dog’s skin.
Always remove the receiver collar from your dog when the system is not in use. Avoid leaving the
receiver collar on your dog for more than 12 hours a day, and never attach a lead to it — use a
separate collar for that.
Please read this guide and the customer care guide thoroughly for important safety information about
how to fit and use the receiver collar. The receiver collar may be too large for pets under 2.3 kilograms.
Train your dog for
success.
Successful use of the fence system requires that you spend time training your dog to understand and
respect the boundary. Your pet should be old enough to recognise basic obedience commands such as
“sit” and “stay” (approximately 6 months or older).
The provided training guide will lead you through our recommended training method step by step. Since
every dog is unique, training time will vary from pet to pet.
Important:
We do not recommend the fence system for pets with a history of aggressive behaviour.
