Overview
A wireless containment system from PetSafe, made by the parent company of Invisible Fence, that sets a circular boundary of up to half an acre without burying wire. It includes a waterproof receiver collar for dogs 8 pounds and up, with tone and static correction.
Because the boundary is wireless and circular, coverage is set by transmitter placement rather than a buried perimeter, which is what makes it portable for travel but also uneven for irregularly shaped yards. The box includes long contact points for long haired dogs, 50 training flags, a test light tool, and a training guide.
- Covers up to 1/2 acre, no buried wire
- Waterproof collar, 8 lb minimum dog weight
- Tone then static correction
- Includes 50 training flags and training guide
Who it's for
A single dog over 8 pounds in a yard roughly circular and within half an acre of the transmitter is the fit here. Dogs under 8 pounds, multi-dog households needing multiple collars, or yards larger or oddly shaped are a worse match.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- No wire burying required
- Portable, can be reset up when traveling
- Includes training flags and a guide
- Coverage tops out at half an acre from one transmitter
- Circular boundary fits square or irregular yards poorly
- No review data cited to confirm real-world reliability
Performance notes
The transmitter broadcasts a circular boundary and the receiver collar steps up from a tone to a static correction as the dog nears the edge, powered by an RFA-67D battery. Long contact points are included for long haired breeds.
