Threshold Pet Barrier keeps your pet from entering or leaving a certain room, from going up or down stairs, off of furniture, etc. Just
place the threshold transmitter near the area your pet should avoid. The PetSafe

Threshold Pet Barrier transmits an adjustable elliptical radio
signal. Your pet wears a receiver collar with contact points that touch his neck. When your pet enters the barrier area, he will hear a series of audible tones from
the receiver collar and he will feel a safe, progressive static stimulation, delivered through the contact points on his neck. The progressive static stimulation will
get his attention, but will not cause harm. The stimulation continues until your pet leaves the barrier area. If your pet doesn’t leave the area within 2-3 seconds,
the receiver collar will stimulate at the maximum level until the pet either leaves the area or until the safety time-out feature occurs at 13-15 seconds. The

Threshold Pet Barrier has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for pets at least 6 months old and 5 lb. or more.
