[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Bella is our baby and we have been scared of her getting loose and being hit by a car. This in ground fence system works great. It was so easy to set up and Bella already learned the boundaries. This is worth the money for peace of mind to keep her safe.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is a life saver if you have a dog that's not insane. In my neighborhood there are seven houses on our street. We're not allowed to put up fences. I usually put my little dog on a tie out because of that. This fence system is fantastic my dog can't use it because he's insane. He doesn't understand. However, my best friend's little dog uses it perfectly. She did not require much training to grasp the idea. No account of training would help my stubborn dog. So my review is that the product is fantastic if your dog can be trained.

Keeps my baby safe without sacrificing his freedom

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a Yorkie mom, finding the balance between giving Boy the freedom he craves and keeping him safe in our backyard was tricky, until we installed the PetSafe Basic In-Ground Fence. I love the customizable layout and the adjustable collar, perfect for my backyard and my tiny baby. Some drawbacks about this fence are the wire burying is tedious and the battery powered collar doesn't last long with daily use. But overall, I can now relax on the porch while Boy plays safely in the yard without constant supervision.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently installed the PetSafe Basic In-Ground Fence System for my dog, and overall I’m really happy with the results. The kit came with everything I needed to get started, and the instructions were pretty straightforward for a weekend DIY project. My dog picked up on the boundaries within about 10 days, and it’s been amazing to let him run around safely without a leash.
The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the initial 500 ft of wire only covers a small area (about 1/3 acre), so I had to purchase extra wire separately for full coverage. Also, burying the wire can be time-consuming depending on your yard. Still, for the price and peace of mind, it’s totally worth it. Would definitely recommend to pet parents with a yard!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This device is great. Took a bit to dig and run it but once done I was amazed. Works great, holds really long battery life. The range has a nice wide area for my dogs to run. Came with one collar but purchased a second for my other dog. Now I don’t have to worry about the little one getting out of the fence anymore. They learned the boundaries fast.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The setup was quick and easy, and the collar is lightweight and adjustable for comfort. It effectively keeps my dog contained within the yard after some initial training.
Caution: Since it uses an electric signal, be careful during installation and training, as there’s a risk of your pet getting a shock if they cross the boundary.

Questions

Sort by: Newest Answers
Does the wire for the perimeter have to be used in one shot or can it be cut into different areas for different sizes
- Thank you for asking about this! Though you do not have to use all the wire in your layout and can use smaller portions of wire to cover areas within your layout, it is crucial to understand that the wire used in the layout must make one complete loop. Details of how to do this are shown in the manual. If you have any further questions or would like to see a manual before purchasing, please reach out to our live support team! Our number is 1-800-732-2677, and our hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 7 P.M. EST.

will the wire still work if I put it in PVC pipe around the yard?
- Thank you for asking about this! Yes, any non-metallic conduit would be perfectly fine to run your wire through, so PVC would be a good option.
Helpful?
I have a power gate into my driveway. Every time it opens, my Canne Corso takes off out the gate. Would this work to keep him from doing that? and would the gate cause any problems? (It is a mighty Mule - opens in the middle).
- Thank you for your question. While the fence may be a great option to help train your pup from taking off when the gate opens, following the training instructions included with the system is crucial for the fence to be successful. To help prevent possible interference, we would recommend keeping the fencing wire at least 5 ft from the electric gate. For additional assistance, please reach out to our Customer Care team directly at 1-866-738-4379 Monday - Friday 8am - 7pm EST
Helpful?
Rather than digging and putting it in the ground, will it work if I hook it through a fence? I can put it up high enough to not be in the way of the mower. Will that work?
- Thank you for your great question. The wire does not need to be buried to function, and you can attach it to a non-metal fence.
Helpful?
I have a Great Pyranese is this fence system strong enough to contanin him, like 125lbs
- Great question! We typically recommend the type of collar based on your dog's individual temperament rather than size or breed. This Basic In-Ground Fence will offer our standard strength receiver collar which is great for timid to average temperaments. For more energetic to stubborn temperaments, we also offer the PIG00-10777 Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence. If you have questions, feel free to give us a call at 1-800-732-2677.
Helpful?
How close does the collar get before the shock?
- Thank you for your question! The distance away from the wire that the collar will begin to activate is fully adjustable. The minimum/maximum range can vary depending on the total amount of wire used in the boundary and environmental factors, but typically it can be set as close as a couple of feet away up to as far away as 8-12".
Helpful?
would this work for keeping a dog off the highway? I live on a small farm and she is allowed everywhere else around the place , but she keeps going onto the highway.
- Thank you for your great question. You can absolutely use this In-Ground Fence to only bound off one part of your property. There will be layout examples in the manual that will show you some ideas for your layout.
Helpful?
Could I use this as a way to prevent my dog from bolting out the front door? I don’t want it to affect her when she goes near the door inside, just when she attempts to cross the boundary to dash out the door.
- A Scat Mat might be what you are looking for. It shocks on the feet when pup tries to cross the threshold. I believe you can buy an indoor or an outdoor version.
Helpful?
How would I place the wire if I have to go over a slab or sidewalk to make a perimeter "fence" out my front door?
- Thank you for your great question, Pam! To cross a sidewalk or driveway, many people like to lay the wire in an expansion joint, the space where two concrete slabs meet. You can then use a sealing caulk to place over the wire and hold it in place. Alternatively, many people like to use a circular saw with a masonry blade to cut a groove into the concrete. Then you can lay the wire and use the sealing caulk. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us directly at PetSafe at 1-800-732-2677, and we'll be happy to help!
Helpful?
Can I run the loop above ground along 2 rural fence wires 12 " apart for a one sided boundary? Is there a non mains battery to power the system that might be solar rechargeable?
- Thank you for your question! To run the wire along a single side of the yard, a double loop layout with the two sides of the wire running parallel to each other, separated by at least 5', would be needed. The material that your existing rural fence is made of could also potentially effect the signal. Due to the number of factors involved, we'd highly recommend giving our Customer Care Center a call at the number 1-800-732-2677 so that we can discuss the best way to achieve your desired wire layout. The Basic In-Ground Fence's transmitter unit is powered by an AC power adapter and does not have an internal battery.
