Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Designed specifically for smaller dogs yet as durable and sophisticated as Petsafe's traditional in-ground fence systems, the In-Ground Deluxe Little Dog fence protects your canine pal from danger, protects the flower bed from your canine friend, and even helps you train little Fido, too! Highly versatile and extremely comfortable, the system features the smallest receiver-collar on the market. Weighing just 2.7 ounces, the collar is 45 percent smaller than anything on the market. Best of all, unlike traditional fences, cages, and chains, it's the one solution that can't be dug under, chewed through, or jumped over.
The lightweight receiver-collar picks up a radio signal from the transmitter and beeps to alert the dog as it nears the underground boundary. If it continues toward the boundary, it receives a harmless electrostatic correction (about what you feel when you drag your feet across the carpet and touch the doorknob). The transmitter, receiver, and power adapter are UL-approved for optimal safety and reliability. In addition, the new QuickFit buckle provides a quick release and a perfect fit every time. Adjustable from 6 inches to 26 inches, this flexible collar provides a comfortable fit for any size dog. Not enough can be said about PetSafe's new comfort fit collar design and functionality. The receiver features a low battery indicator light, and lets you know if your batteries need replacing. A safety shut off kicks in if the dog is in the correction zone for 20 seconds. The size of a match head, Petsafe's ASIC Microchip Chip is onboard the lightweight collar and features over 3000 filtering mechanisms that prevent unwanted corrections.
The included boundary wire can be buried in the ground 3 to 4 inches deep, or installed above ground with sod staples to hold it in place in low-traffic areas where no one is likely to trip over the line. The wire sets up around flower beds, shrubs, trees, decks and more to keep pets away. The transmitter attaches to the wire quickly and easily with no tools and plugs into a standard outlet. An included installation video and training manual make it all a snap. The system works with multiple dogs (with the purchase of additional receiver collars).
Covering up to 25 acres, the system is equipped with a break-alarm that signals with sound and light if the wire breaks. With plenty of correction-setting options, the highly versatile radio fence makes it easy to train your pet. By spending just minutes a day working with your pet, he can be fully trained in a few days. You can train as many dogs as you want on the same system, as long as they are each wearing a receiver collar (additional collars sold separately). And, Petsafe covers the system with a limited lifetime warranty.

This review is from: PetSafe In-Ground Deluxe Little-Dog Fence with Collar, Transmitter and Boundary System, PIG00-10773 (Misc.)
I was somewhat skeptical whether the inground fence would work for my dog. She is a 5-year old Shichon that loves to chase squirrels, rabbits and cats. We decided to give it a try and installed the system about a month ago. During the initial training I had the collar set to "2" on the 1 to 5 scale and it didn't do much. Then I set it to "3" and allowed her to venture past the white flags. She gave a small yelp and immediately came back in the yard and headed for the house. It took a few days for her to be comfortable in the yard again. But now, a month later, she loves going out and we don't have to worry about her running off. When she sees rabbits or squirrels she keeps a very close eye on them and may chase a little, but once she gets close to the boundary she stops.I've heard many comments about the RFA-188 battery in the collar not lasting very long so I ordered a couple spares, but I'm still on the original battery and it seems to be holding up great. We take the collar off whenever she's in the house. When she's in the yard the collar takes very little energy since she usually doesn't get close enough to the boundary for the tone to sound. One comment I do have regarding the collar is that it is not very compliant on either side of the control module so it doesn't fit all that well on my dog's small neck (approximately 12" circumference). The module doesn't hang at the bottom of her neck the way you think it would. It seems to work its way up around to the side of her neck. The good news is, it seems to work just as well no matter where it ends up. Installation was straight forward, although you should allow a full weekend to get it done. The control box allows the boundary zone to be easily adjusted. I have just a little over 500 feet of wire and a setting of a little over 6 gives a boundary width of about three feet. It is so nice to see our dog running loose in the yard instead of constantly getting her rope all tangled. She really enjoys her freedom. I highly recommend this product. Update: We've had the fence for 14 months now and are still on the original battery! Can't say enough good things about the quality of the system and how well it works for our pet.

This review is from: PetSafe In-Ground Deluxe Little-Dog Fence with Collar, Transmitter and Boundary System, PIG00-10773 (Misc.)
We have 2 beagles whose noses would lead them anywhere. They dag under the chain link fence before, run at the slightest sound to see what it is, so I was leery about this product where there was no "visible" fence to keep them confined safely. However, it works like magic! Once trained (which did not take long at all - they figured out that they cannot go past the flags really fast after getting corrected a couple of times), they stay perfectly confined in the little dog area. We were very comfortable taking off the chain link fence and knowing that the dogs would stay put. Even when we are walking around past the perimeter and they want to be with us, they stay behind the flags. When they run after noises, they stay behind the flags.The only drawback was that the battery for one of the collars was already dead when we got it. Luckily, we received two extra batteries so that was not so much of a problem. One nice feature is that the collar correction level is adjustable. The beagles didn't even notice the 2 setting but when we put it up to 3, it worked great. Installation was a breeze. If you read and understand the directions, you will have no problems at all. Twisting the wire is tricky so it may not hurt to purchase a roll of already twisted wire. Training the dogs ~ well that depends on the dog. From the reviews I read, some dogs figure it out real quick (and minimal training is required). Our dogs were like that. Some dogs may take a little longer to adjust. In any case, it isn't a problem with the system (the system is great) and some extra attention may need to be given to more stubborn dogs. In sum, this system works and is well worth the investment!

This review is from: PetSafe In-Ground Deluxe Little-Dog Fence with Collar, Transmitter and Boundary System, PIG00-10773 (Misc.)
We purchased this product after receiving quotes for invisibile fences costing $1,300. The instalation is easy and anyone can do it. All you need is typical side walk edger to cut a slit in the ground to stick the wire in. We installed the main unit in the garage and drilled a hole thru the wall for the wires. I purcased conduit separately to protect the wire until it reached the ground. You should also consider purchasing asphault filler to cover the wire along the gap between the driveway and sidewalk. Overall the installtion took me 5 hours by myself with the majority of the time dedicated to putting the wire in the ground. This was easy but time consuming. Training our dog was also very easy and we could let him loose in the yard after only three training sesions. After we installed our fence, many of our neighbors also were convinced that they could do it as well. By doing this yourself, you can realize savings of $200/hr compared to paying someone else to do it for you. We are very satisfied and would recommed this product to everyone with a small dog. One of our neighbors went for the professional installation and had it installed three weeks before we did. Our dog was trained well before their's as their company had to come out each time to adjust the settings on the collar as they we not able to control it themselves. If you have any ablity with tools, you can do this yourself.
