Fence Transmitter: Sends a radio signal through the boundary wire installed around the containment area.

Collar: As your dog nears the wire, the collar detects the signal and gives a warning tone and vibration.

Range Adjustment: Control how close your dog can get to the wire by adjusting the fence transmitter's range knob.

Flags: Placed where your dog would receive the warning, flags are optional but recommended for training; they provide a visual cue for your dog.

Static Correction: If your dog keeps approaching the wire, the collar delivers a static correction to deter them.

Correction Levels: Choose from 7 levels of correction intensity based on your dog’s temperament. Start with the lowest effective level.

Anti-Linger: Prevents collar battery drain by eventually delivering a static correction if your dog stays in the warning zone too long.

Expandable Coverage

This kit includes 2 rolls of 500 ft. wire and 2 splice kits, covering up to 1 ⅓ acres based on your layout. For larger areas, additional wire and splice kits are required.

Adjustable Correction Levels

The collar provides a tone and vibration warning as your dog nears the boundary regardless of what level it's set to. It comes set to level 1 which is tone and vibration only. There are 7 levels of static stimulation to chose from with level 2 being the lowest and 8 being the highest. Refer to the operation manual for adjustment instructions.

Multiple Dog Capability

You can add unlimited dogs to the system with additional collars.

Dog Size

Suitable for dogs weighing 10 lbs. or more with neck sizes from 5" to 22".

Batteries

Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries charge in 2 hours, with a low battery indicator. Expect 1-2 months of use per charge, depending on boundary testing frequency.

Installing Your In-Ground Fence™ System: A Quick Guide

1. Plan and Test Layout
   • Decide your boundary layout.
   • Lay the wire on the ground and walk around the boundary with the collar at your dog’s height to check if it vibrates as expected.
2. Bury the Wire
   • Dig a shallow trench and bury the wire a few inches deep to protect it.
3. Place Warning Flags
   • Walk up to the buried wire with the collar at your dog’s height and place flags where the collar vibrates. Space flags every 10-15 feet.
4. Set Correction Levels
   • Start with the lowest static stimulation level on the collar and gradually increase until you find the lowest effective level.
5. Train Your Dog
   • Use the provided manual for short training sessions over the next 2 weeks. Remove flags once your dog understands the boundary.

Potential Additional Tools Needed

• Extra wire and flags (for areas larger than 1 ⅓ acres)
• Shovel or lawn edger*
• Drill, measuring tape
• Pliers, wire stripping pliers, scissors
• Gel-filled capsules, wire nuts, ground rod and clamp
• PVC pipe or water hose (for hard-to-bury areas)
• Circular saw with masonry blade (for hard surfaces)
• Patching compound, staple gun
• Non-metallic collar and leash

*For larger areas, consider renting a trencher to help with burying the wire.

Important Tips

• Continuous Loop: The boundary wire must start and end at the Fence Transmitter.
• Gradual Turns: Use gentle curves at corners to avoid gaps in the boundary.
• Boundary Width: Set warning and stimulation zones to 16-24 feet (8-12 feet on each side of the wire) using the range adjuster knob.
• Collar Activation: If the wire runs along an outside wall of your house, the collar may activate inside. Remove the collar, adjust the range, or change the layout as needed.
