A radio pet fence is a recent innovation in perimeter pet containment. A radio dog fence gives you a simple form of pet containment . You simply plug in a transmitter device wherever you have a spare outlet in your home . Most people like to pick a spot that is out of the way . The transmitting unit emits a signal around your house . The pet you want to contain wears an ultra light receiving collar that monitors the signal. As long as it can receive , the dog is able to roam around . If your pet gets near the edge of the transmission area , the collar gives your dog an alert sound.

If your dog continues past the boundary , he receives a mild electrical impulse which is startling but is not harmful . After a brief training session your dog readily becomes aware of his containment area . Setting the boundaries of your property only takes a few moments by adjusting the range on the transmitter , from a limit of just a small area to up to 90 feet.

Instant dog fences are extremely popular with pet owners. It is easy to see why, too. Invisble pet fences set up in minutes, are a breeze to install, can be easily taken to a new home and can even be used while traveling . These systems provide a safe zone for your pet that cannot be dug under or broken down. Best of all, there is no wire to bury, no trenches to dig and no stakes to pound and no fences to build.
