How the System Works
The PetSafe ® In-Ground Fence ™ has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for all pets up to 55 pounds with
neck sizes 6”-26”. The system works by producing a radio signal from the Fence Transmitter through up to 4000 feet of
Boundary Wire. The Boundary Wire is buried or attached to a fi xed object to enclose the Pet Area. You temporarily defi ne
the Pet Area with Boundary Flags for a visual aid in training your pet. Your pet wears a Receiver Collar with Contact Points
that touch his neck, and, once trained, is allowed to roam freely in the Pet Area. When your pet reaches the Warning Zone,
the Receiver Collar gives a warning beep. If your pet continues into the Static Correction Zone, a safe Static Correction will
be delivered through the Contact Points to get his attention until he returns to the Pet Area.
