Wireless Fence for Dogs & Cats - PetSafe Stay & Play with Rechargeable Collar Battery - Covers 3/4 Acre - Waterproof Collar, Tone & Static - From Parent Company of INVISIBLE FENCE Brand Review

This product does not work at all. The collar had to sit snugly on my dog's neck to fit the base unit. If I followed my dog around the yard and held the collar in just the right position, it would work and emit a small static correction and beep. When I let my dog roam free, the collar doesn't respond. I've tried positioning the base in many different places around my home and I've tried both sets of probes that come with the collar and various levels of correction, tightening and loosening of…

Our two dogs ran away from our yard. We live on a mountainside and coyotes have been sighted in our area. We have a German Shepherd mix and she loves to explore and dig. We also have a Basenji mix and he is the same. I've tried blocking out areas and using wire mesh. I also used zip ties and metal pins. It was no use. The straps don't hold up well. The collar works great keeping her and our Basenji mix away from the fence and corners of the yard. There are 5 levels of correction and we use a…

We had to try 3 locations for the main unit as our home is a long ranch with a basement and the yard is down on one side and uphill in the back. So there was a place where there was a narrow path out of an area with no signal, or whatever you want to describe it, but then there was a shock, and it was a long way to a safe path. We tried a few more places to place the device and found a good spot where the borders made a nice wide circle around the house. Because the house is long, the area is…

My wife bought this as an emergency measure - the neighbor's dog and my 2 year old love jumping over the 5ft HOA fence at each other. Not aggressive, but the way 2 men can breastfeed in a corridor. Last week our larger, heavier dog slashed the face of the neighbor's dog which we paid for emergency repairs. This led to a promise from said neighbor that if my dog started hitting the fence again, they would sue. This perimeter was installed on November 15 and is working well. The dog spirit is…

Based on some reviews I was nervous about ordering this product. I have hunting dogs and live near the freeway. It's imperative that no matter what gets them running (rabbits), they stop at the fence line. I put up white flags about every 5 to 8 feet to make it clear where the boundaries are. I live in a hilly area so some of my property goes up and some goes down. If you live in a hilly area (highs and lows of 15 to 30 feet) you will find that this is not an even circle around your home. does…

I really wanted to love this product. The concept is great. I was really drawn to the wireless idea. We have normal properties. It is relatively square and flat with a house in the middle. I thought this would work great. I placed the transmitter in the middle of the house and placed it in such a way that the electric field near the fences was canceled. Unfortunately it just didn't work. It took hours and hours to set the flags. Turning the knob to increase or decrease the field size changes…

I've had this system for 9 months now. My breed of dog is the Australian Cattle Dog and I have tried it with three different dogs. It works fairly well but has some downsides and results vary from dog to dog. We've never played around with setting border flags. Just hooked up the transmitter. After 1-2 adjustments, the dogs quickly found that they would stop as soon as the collar began to squeak. I have 1 regular pen and 1 long pen. I have a man who crashes into a barrier at breakneck speed…

After 2 weeks of research online I was in the process of installing an in ground fence when it occurred to me that wireless devices might be available. They turned out to be, and this one seemed to have the features I wanted, the same features I was looking for in a ground unit (performance, build quality, decent collar battery life). Before going wireless, you must understand the limitations of the wireless nature of the device and balance this with your needs and the physical layout of your…
