How to Set Up PetSafe Wireless Dog Fence

Step 1: Choosing the Right Location

Before setting up your PetSafe wireless dog fence, you need to select the right location. Find a spot with enough space for your pet to roam freely and where the signal won’t be blocked by obstacles like metal objects or large furniture.

Step 2: Setting Up the Transmitter

Place the transmitter in a central location inside your home, preferably on an elevated surface. Connect it to a power source and ensure it’s away from other electronic devices that could interfere with the signal.

Step 3: Installing Boundary Flags

Insert the boundary flags where you want the invisible boundary line to be. These flags will act as visual markers for your pet during training.

Step 4: Fitting the Collar

Adjust the collar to fit your dog comfortably. Ensure the contact points are touching your pet’s skin, and the receiver box is positioned on the front of the dog’s neck.

Step 5: Training Your Pet

Introduce your dog to the fenced area with the collar on. Use positive reinforcement to guide your pet back into the safe zone whenever they approach the boundary. Repeat this training until your dog understands the system.

Step 6: Testing and Adjusting

Periodically test the system’s functionality and make adjustments if needed. Monitor your pet’s behavior and keep reinforcing the training to ensure they stay safe within the boundaries.

Step 7: Enjoying a Safe Space for Your Pet

With your PetSafe wireless dog fence set up correctly and your pet trained to respect the boundaries, you can now enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is safe and secure in their designated area.
