How the System Works
The system works by sending a radio signal through a buried wire (boundary
wire). Your pet wears a receiver collar that picks up the signal. It warns your pet
with a beep when he or she enters the warning zone. If your pet continues to
venture out, the collar will issue a safe but startling correction, similar to the static
you feel if you drag your feet across a carpet and then touch a door handle. Of
course, different pets respond to different levels of correction. We have built in 5
levels of correction plus a tone-only setting to accommodate any pet. The only
pets that we do not recommend the system for are aggressive pets and pets below
6 months of age or under 5 lb.
