Usually ships in 1 business days | | | | | | The PetSafe Wireless Fence pet containment system is a revolutionary concept that provides the safest, simplest form of pet containment ever. Plug in the transmitter somewhere inconspicuous in your home. The transmitter emits a 17.5 kHz radio signal around your home. Your pet wears a lightweight receiver collar that "listens" for the signal. While the collar is receiving the signal, your dog is free to run and play in your yard. When he approaches the boundary of the signal area, he receives a warning beep. If your dog does not return, he receives a static correction which is startling but not harmful. With a little simple training, your dog will quickly learn his boundaries. The training of your pet is a key element with the PetSafe Wireless Fence. Follow the easy instruction and training manual that is included. | | | |

 PetSafe 300 wireless - I love it! Mar 15, 2010
I didn't know what to expect when I ordered this product, but based upon other reviews, I hoped for a positive product. I can't be more pleased. It sets up in minutes. The radiowave machine makes no noise (I wasn't sure what to expect). It is a trial/error type of figuring out the distances. I tried first about 70ft diameter, but found that was too much to keep my whippet/greyhound from jumping the side fence to the neighbor's yard. I then moved it to 45ft diameter. Before putting the collar on the dog, I walked with the collar close to my ear and placed the white flags when I first heard the warning buzzing. I then walked the dog w/o the collar on to each flag and said a loud NO! After putting on the collar, I had the dog follow me throughout the backyard - she would not even go close to the flags -- and I DID NOAT coax her to cross them either - it is about PREVENTING - if the dog should jump the fence, it may be afraid to return because of the shock, so be careful!!! Praising her for staying away from the flags was important. Now she only goes so far in the yard. No more fence jumping. I will remove the flags in a month or two. I have the collar set on 4! But But be careful to REMOVE the collar before you take the dog in the car somewhere. I forgot, luckily didn't get out of the garage before the dog started to get excited. I knew immediately and took off the collar and put on her other hiking collar. Whew! No zapping! One issue, tho, is that the waves don't seem to go through my metal shed on the side of the house, but it is OK because the waves pick up on the other side of it should the dog get that far. Great product!!!
Glad I bought it Mar 12, 2010
I was a little nervous about spending this much on a system I was not sure would work with my dog. But we followed the training instructions (actually extended the training time by a week before we turned on the "juice"), and it has worked beautifully on our 10 acre parcel.
I agree with the reviews that note the moving boundaries, so we concentrated more on the beep from the collar than the white warning flags. They seem to be a good rule of thumb for my dog on a calm day, but if it's windy out the borders move. She responds to the beep with the collar set at level 2 for static shock.
After having the system a few months, we put it to the true test, and let her play outside with the neighbor's dog. When the boundary was reached, she turned and re-entered the safe zone, even if her pal was running outside it. They now happily play within the zone, and she does not mind having the collar put on her (we take it off inside the house)at the door.
My advice is to give your dog the time they need to get used to the concept of beeping/run to the door if you have a moving boundary issue, and it won't matter that it moves, unless you live on a small parcel.
My only negative is that I do wish this system did not use a proprietary battery.
worked great after only two days! Mar 11, 2010
Our dog, without fail, would run to the neighbors' yards, driveways, and into the street. Once the correction phase began he became a new pet. Fantastic product!

PetSafe makes porcupine encounters nil Mar 02, 2010
I highly recommend this appliance, hands down. I should have come on earlier with this...moved to the Northeast, Labs nor I familiar with porcupines. In the first month, we had two trips to the vet- emergency wise. Very expensive, painful, and the injuries do not make the dogs retreat, but retaliate...every chance they got.
Invested in this little wondrous machine and by golly, it works like a miracle. It only took 1 week to train, although that might be stretching it....meaning, in a few days the dogs were quite secure and safe in their boundary area and learned not too painfully quick- to avoid the boundary line. My dogs are big chocolate Labs who were use to roaming free in the backwoods and on the backroads of the Midwest. For their own protection, this system beats fencing, chaining- it virtually allows them the freedom they need with the safety required for them to live a long satisfying life. As an owner, I am ever thankful such a product exists that protects my friends/dogs.
(Please note: The fence does not keep porcupines out, but!!! The dogs stand at their boundaries barking and carrying on with the prickly pigs in sight and the porcupine takes that as a no trespassing sign and has not entered...yet.)

This is so great I can hardly believe it Feb 19, 2010
This is one of the best things I've ever bought. It has drastically improved my life and my dog's life. I was apprehensive about how well it would work and about shocking my dog, but it's been as perfect as I could possibly have hoped for.
We rent, so finding a place with a fence is hard. And my dog loves to lay outside all day on the porch. Before we had this product, we had her on a tie out, and she always tangled it around trees, and would run to end of it really fast when another dog walked by, and it looked so painful.
We started off training her on the lowest shock setting, and she didn't really seem to get it, it was hard to tell if she was being shocked or not. She's 18 months old and about 70lb. After about three days, we turned it up to the second lowest, and she immediately got it. One more 20 minute session and she never tried to cross the white flags again. She didn't even really seem bothered by the shocks, she'd do a little dance, and then come running to us, and was happy and tail wagging as soon as she was back in bounds. We carried her out of bounds for a few weeks after we trained her, but then she learned that with us was okay.
Our house is on a slant, the left side of the house is maybe 15 feet higher than the right, and it works fine. We have it plugged in at the rear of the house, and it works fine through the 18 inch thick concrete rear wall. Also works fine with 10 feet of snow on the ground, even if the dog digs down deep.
Only at all annoying thing about it is that if she jumps in the car while she has the collar on, it'll shock her. There's really no way they could prevent this, but be sure to take the collar off of your dog before trying to get them in the car.
