Barrier System Works
The Barrier Transmitter, disguised as a rock in your landscape, sends a spherical radio signal up
to 16 feet in diameter or an 8 foot radius. Your pet wears a Receiver Collar with Contact Points
that touch his neck. When your pet enters the Barrier Area, he’ll hear a series of audible tones
from the Receiver Collar and he will feel a safe progressive Static Correction, delivered through
the Contact Points on his neck. It is designed to startle, not to punish. The progressive Static
Correction will get your pet’s attention, but will not cause harm. The correction continues until
your pet leaves the Barrier Area. If your pet doesn’t leave, the collar will continue to correct at
the maximum level from 3 seconds until the 15 second time-out. The system has been proven
safe, comfortable and effective for pets at least 6 months old and over 5 pounds.
You also have the option to create a custom shaped barrier using Boundary Wire.
Create a barrier loop up to 150 feet.
This is a deterrence system designed to keep pets away from areas in your
landscape you want to protect. THIS IS NOT A CONTAINMENT SYSTEM.
Do not use this system to keep your pet contained in your yard. The static
correction is not intended to keep your pet contained.
