Attaching the power adapter to your base unit is usually every bit as easy as plugging in the charger for any mobile device. Some base units will interfere with one another, so you might run into problems if your neighbor has one as well.
Setting it up, however, is usually as easy as plugging in a couple of cords. Dial settings on most base units will usually let you go down to maybe feet and no less than this. Few wireless invisible fences can ever exceed maybe feet or so.
Installing wire in the ground As I mention often throughout this site, most do-it-yourself dog fences come with wire that is inappropriate for outdoor use. Use your shovel to create a thin trench between 1 to 6 inches deep in the areas you wish to protect. The trench does not need to be wide — simply kick your shovel into the ground, and move the shovel back and forth a couple of times to create room for the wire.
In areas where your ground is particularly hard or rough, you may need to use a pickaxe to create your trench. Install the boundary wire. Tuck the boundary wire into the trench, and cover the wire by stomping on the ground around the trench. You can use a handheld weeding tool to simplify the process, just make sure to dull the prongs first — if the weeder is too sharp, you may accidentally break the wire watch a video of me using this technique.
Alternatively, you can use a wooden paint stirrer, although a weeding tool tends to be far more efficient. Create and install your twisted wire. In some areas, you'll need to install wire that shouldn't correct your dog — for example, the wire that connects your transmitter to your outer boundary wire. Fortunately, there's a simple solution: when you twist two lengths of wire together, it cancels the signal each of those wires emits.
If your twisted wire needs to travel a long distance, it's pretty painstaking to create the twisted wire by hand. Fortunately, I can show you a quick and easy way to create as much twisted wire as you need. Cover your wire. You can certainly make this happen with an electric dog fencing system. All of the fundamental rules of installation apply to installing a small section of protection as they would for a whole yard installation.
This includes completing a loop, twisted wire and installing a main control panel next to an outlet. The illustrations below demonstrate how protection can be provided for almost any escape point on your property.
With this layout, you can simply run a piece of twisted wire from your main dog fence transmitter to the gate opening or escape point. Simply run a small loop around this area separating the wires by at least feet. This area will now be active and prevent your dog from escaping through this area. Perhaps you live in a rural setting, and all you need to do is protect your dog from going out into the road.
In this case, the one-sided boundary layout is what you need. You simply run a long length of twisted wire from the transmitter, out to the road. The only stipulation to this layout is that the twisted wire can only be half the length of the looped boundary wire.
For example, if you have a loop that is feet in a circle, you can only run 50 feet of wire back to the transmitter. You can use your electric dog fence not only to keep your dog in but also to keep your dog out of sensitive areas of your property.
An unlimited amount of off limits areas can be created with this application. This type of install is ideal for somebody who already has a fenced in backyard and wants to keep the dog away from certain areas. This layout involves creating 2 separate double loops, and connecting them with twisted wire. This allows your dog access in and out of the back of your house, plus it allows access to the back of your property. Should you have enough yard space, you can use a double loop approach to create a boundary that is three-sided.
If you have a lakefront property, or if you would like to give your dog access to the lake, you have several different options. Please note that there is no danger of your dog getting electrocuted while swimming. When you incorporate the lake, you need to know if your lakefront drops off, or gradually gets deeper. It depends on what you are trying to accomplish as to how you will lay the wire to incorporate the lake. As unpleasant as this stage may seem, it is extremely important that you teach your pet how to react to the intense stimulus.
Otherwise, your dog may become confused and cower in the correction field or instinctively run the wrong way through the field. Bear in mind that you do not want to let your dog in on the knowledge that the stimulus field is only a few feet wide.
Let him think it continues forever. With the training lead tightly in hand, escort your dog right up to the boundary flag where the stimulus will be most intense. The instant your dog reacts, utter the retreat command and escort your dog into the safe zone.
Use encouraging words, praise and pet your dog and give the animal a treat as before. These are good signs. Make sure that you see him stop at the boundary flags on his own. If your dog shows the slightest sign of confusion or stubborn behavior, continue the training program using the lead. Also realize that an aggressive animal could turn against the handler upon receiving the shock stimulus.
Therefore, if you feel your dog has an aggressive behavior or has ever exhibited evidence of such behavior, we strongly suggest that you consult a certified animal behaviorist before using this product as a training aid.
This condition causes an infection, creating irritation and sores. If your dog has a history of sensitive skin, eczema, skin allergies or rashes we recommend that you do not use an electronic fence collar to contain an animal.
If you do observe a skin irritation, take your dog to a veterinarian who may prescribe a local ointment to clear up the condition. The electrical current output is simply too low to cause burning, or any other type of cellular, skin or organ damage.
The stimulus excites nerve receptors only. Neurological Conditions: In extremely rare cases, animals may have neurological disorders such as epilepsy. You should be certain that your dog does not suffer from such a disease before using any type of sonic, or shock stimulus training collar. Also, make sure that your dog does not suffer from heart disease or any other chronic condition and be assured that your pet is in generally good health before using this product.
There will be an audible alarm and a message on the transmitter face. You can use any gauge wire. There should be no audible alarm and no Break message on the transmitter. Now bring one collar at a time close to the Test Wire Loop and verify the collar is triggering. If you hear a beeping tone and see a flashing red light on the face of the collar the collar is working and the Base Station Transmitter is working, so go to step 3 to verify the loop.
As you move both collars toward the wire loop both collars should beep at about the same rate. Clean means with the least amount of metal or concrete nearby concrete may contain metal re-bar. This area should be free of underground pipes if possible. This makes the face almost parallel to the wire at that point.
Go to step 4. If not, the loop is intermittent and needs repair. Continue slowly adjusting clockwise and note the beeping rate increases to two short beeps every half second.
Continue slowly adjusting clockwise and note the collar beeping at an even higher rate that sounds like a string of beeps every half second.
This means the loop and the entire system are working properly. If not the loop is intermittent.
