Pet Fence

Pet Fence

You want your pet to run, play, and revel in the great outdoors. You want your pet to be able to roam free, enjoying the sights, sounds, and smells around your yard.

But most importantly, you want your pet to stay safe.

Enter Pet Stop®. Our wireless pet containment systems provide an invisible barrier, keeping your pets safe without obstructing your view—or theirs.

How Our Pet Fences Work

The Pet Stop® pet fence consists of three essential elements that work together to provide your pet with 24/7 protection:

The first component is the boundary wire. Our boundary wires are buried underground, so there’s no risk of people or pets tripping over the boundary, and no eyesores in your yard. This boundary wire defines the perimeter where your pets can run and play; you can customize this perimeter to stop your pets from jumping into pools, plants, and other areas where you don’t want them to roam.

The second element of your hidden fence is the transmitter. Typically placed in a basement or a garage, both ends of the boundary wire connect to the transmitter, which sends a signal to your pet’s collar when it’s approaching an area that’s off-limits.

The third element is your pet’s receiver collar. This collar receives a signal from the transmitter when your pet gets too close to the boundary wire; if your pet attempts to cross the boundary, they will receive a mild physical stimulus to stop them from crossing the boundary. This sensation is similar to a mild static shock—not painful, just surprising.

Advantages Of Wireless Pet Fences

Wireless pet fences are good for everyone. They ensure your pet’s safety without obstructing your view or your pet’s view. Our pets love to roam around their territory and survey their surroundings; wireless pet fences allow them to engage in these natural behaviors without putting themselves at risk.

An underground fence is good for your relationships with your neighbors, too. With traditional fencing, you may have to have hard conversations with your neighbors about whether or not they want a fence, if they’re willing to split costs, what materials they want to use, the height they want for the fence, and the list goes on. With an invisible fence, you don’t need to worry about any of the above.

Versatility is another major advantage of our wireless pet fences. Pet Stop® is more than just an underground dog fence; it works for cats and other pets, too. Anyone who has tried physical barriers to contain a cat knows: They’re crafty, they’re nimble, and they can leap over or squeeze through just about any obstacle you put in front of them. With our pet fences, there are no obstacles—just mild corrections that provide gentle, effective pet containment.

Finally, our pet containment fences are incredibly affordable—definitely a lot less expensive than the trip to the vet if your pet gets into an accident after escaping from your yard! You’ll also save on the cost of getting permits for a new fence, not to mention the cost of materials and labor; our pet fences are a fraction of the price of a traditional pet fence.

Wireless Vs. Wired Pet Fences

There are two types of hidden fencing: You can get a wired, invisible barrier underground or a wireless, GPS dog fence.

GPS fences are tempting because you don’t need to bury any wire in the ground. Here’s the problem: They’re a lot less reliable than wired dog fences. Their signal boundary can vary by several feet, confusing your pet and limiting the effectiveness of repetition and predictability. Anyone who has ever had their GPS navigate them to the wrong place or place them in the wrong location knows how annoying a malfunctioning GPS can be.

When you’re navigating, a bad GPS signal is annoying; when it comes to your pet’s safety, a bad GPS signal can be dangerous.

Wired pet fences are far more consistent; they’re also better when it comes to customizing the boundaries for your pets. You can also create new boundaries by digging up the wire and changing its placement, and our licensed Pet Stop® dealers can help.

GPS is also inherently inconsistent; GPS pet fence boundaries can shift by up to 10 feet even if they’re working properly. This means that they are not suitable for smaller yards, where the shift can lead to boundaries outside your property line.

Inconsistency also means training is difficult. The point of an invisible boundary is not to constantly correct your pet; it’s to establish where boundaries are, so your pet knows not to approach them. With GPS fences, boundaries can shift too often for your pet to learn where they are.

The GentleSteps Training Program

The GentleSteps training program is designed to help your pet learn the boundaries you’ve set with your Pet Stop® fence. Our licensed Pet Stop® dealers are trained in the GentleSteps program; they can walk your pet through the first steps and give you advice on how to continue the training. Some cats and dogs learn quickly; others are a little more stubborn. Either way, our GentleSteps training program can help, and your pet will likely be fully trained on your underground fence within a couple of weeks.

Installation

Installing a pet fence can seem complex, but it doesn’t have to be. Our Pet Stop® installation experts will work with you to find the perfect configuration for your pet fence. Once you’ve found the right configuration for your needs, they will bury the boundary wire, install the signal transmitter, and customize your pet’s receiver with the program that’s right for you and your pet.

Your Pet Stop dealer will also provide a training session to ensure that your underground fence is working properly; during this session, they’ll also give you tips to ensure that you and your pet get the most out of your new invisible fence!
