How do Dog Fences Work?
Dog fences are a training tool that create a safe perimeter for your dog. Used in combination with a collar your dog receives feedback that can be adjusted when he approaches the delineated perimeter.
A wireless dog fence is not a hot wire like the ones used for cattle and it does not present a risk to children or wildlife. The collar, working together with the fence receives a radio signal letting the dog know that he is in proximity to the boundary. The dog in turn receives feedback in the form of electrostatic energy that can be adjusted to make sure it works and to protect the safety and comfort of your dog.
