How a Dog Guard® of Wisconsin System Works

Dog Guard® Out of Sight Fencing® is a training tool that can keep your pet away from dangerous areas such as driveways and pools, keep them out of flower beds and shrubs—and even keep them from the furniture in your living room. Each installation is customized, so you define the boundaries!

The Dog Guard® system utilizes a specialized radio signal to keep your dog within the perimeter you set. For outside areas, our professional installation team pairs a Dog Guard® transmitter with a sturdy wire placed underground; a smaller wireless transmitter can be added to set boundaries for indoor spaces.

Then, your pet simply wears a comfortable collar carrying a small receiver. When they approach the boundary, the receiver provides a stimulating “correction.” If they continue to advance, a stronger correction is used to keep your pet contained

A Complete Dog Guard® of Wisconsin System includes:

• 1 Dog Guard® Transmitter (more about our transmitters)
  Transmits the radio frequency to and throughout the buried signal/boundary wire. Also controls the depth of the correction zone, (the signal field or distance from the wire before a reminder or correction stimulus is used).
• 1 Dog Guard® Lightning Protection Unit
  Automatically disconnects the transmitter in case of AC power surges and lightning.
• 1 DG9XT, DG5000 or DG Micro receiver with nylon collar and Battery (see our receivers)
  Worn by your pet and used to create the correction stimulus when they enter the correction zones (i.e., the signal field).
• Boundary Wire- 14 Gauge Copper Coated
  Carries the signal from the transmitter that defines the areas your pet can and cannot go, but does NOT carry any current of any kind*. Package includes wire for up to half acre. (Additional acreage done for additional cost.)
• Boundary flags
  Used during training to help your pet visually recognize where they can and cannot go.
• Unlimited training assistance and instructional manual
• One year battery plan for the receiver collar
  
• Unsurpassed Warranty - (click here for our warranty information)
