PetSafe YardMax Rechargeable In-Ground Fence
PetSafe YardMax Rechargeable In-Ground Fence removed from the wishlist
Description
The YardMax Rechargeable In-Ground Fence maximizes the space you have available for your pet to explore. The system works with a rechargeable receiver collar and a transmitter inside your home. Simply bury wire in your yard to set your pet?s boundaries. When your pet crosses the boundary, the collar will give a warning beep followed by a static correction to remind your pet to stay within the boundary. With the YardMax, space is maximized because the warning zone for your pet begins on the other side of the boundary wire, giving your pet more yard space. The Static Correction Zone continues past the Warning Zone. Even if your pet continues beyond the Static Correction Zone, the Receiver Collar continues correcting giving your pet the perception of an endless boundary.Your pet will receive corrections from the receiver collar until he returns to his area, or until the collar times out for safety.
- - Add up to 30% more yard for pets to play
- - Includes 500 feet of boundary wire, and boundary is expandable up to 10 acres with additional insulated copper wire (not included)

Good for stubborn pets like dwarf goats
This system has been amazing at training my dwarf goats to respect a boundary and to stay on their side of the fence. The line took time to bury but I love how I can see at a glance if the system is working. I recharge the collars at night while my goats sleep and put them on in the morning.

Returned waiting for refund; instructions we're extremely long and complicated.

Works Just Fine!
It’s important to note beforehand, this product has only been installed for 10 days. So far the fence is working exactly as planned. I chose the yard max version to maximize the 3/4 acre I contained so that our dog wasn’t getting warnings 10’ from the line. I read the instructions and installed accordingly. I didn’t have an issue with the spring tab connections breaking. I didn’t buy any twisted wire, I bought an additional roll of 500’ and made my own with a drill. We have an 8 month old berneedoodle, and is precocious…we started training according to the manual. On day 2 he got a zap, and was mostly confused by it, and then he got zapped again and he instantly had complete understanding. He went and hid on the deck for a couple hours as he was quite scared but ever since then it’s been great. He mostly avoids the border line altogether but when something is of particular interest he approaches slowly and the tone sends him back promptly; he very much understands it is a warning. Lastly, we live on a quiet street and we didn’t want him to chase after dogs being walked by. Normally he would run out and want to play irregardless if they are friendly or not. He stops dead at the fence and barks now. I’m sure results will vary based on the type of dog you have.

Call your power company before buying
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The quality of the product is good but before purchasing you need to get with the power company to make sure you can safely run it. Due to way our power lines we were not able to hook it up. The other thing that is a bit inconvenient is you have to plug if in indoor so either running it through a window or drill a hole from inside to the outside. Neither are options I prefer. It should be able to work outside being an outdoor item.

Still training to ensure my dog is not so stubborn that he'll run right through.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product and was excited to try it out. We currently use a training collar on our dog. He will sometimes respond to tone. Otherwise, it's set on the lowest setting, which usually corrects bad behaviors. The installation of the wire takes time, but it is not too difficult. I quarantined off my backyard for my dog because it gives him a decent amount of space to play. The battery lasts for a decent amount of time, but it's only in operation when I take my dog out. I am disappointed that the nylon collar is much less durable than our dog's training collar. I have been training with my dog for about three weeks now, and I haven't felt comfortable truly testing the fence. I have a Redboned Coonhound who is very stubborn and was a challenge throughout obedience school. Additionally, there is a Greenway trail behind our house across the busy street. There are plenty of people who walk their dogs on the trail. I do not have the confidence yet to trust what my dog will do. So I give it three stars for now until I can determine that this set-up is going to be trusted regardless of any distractions. I can't take the risk of him running into the road. That being said, we are still in Phase three of the training portion. I will continue this week with my long leash to see what happens.

I needed this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed one of these so bad. I can finally relax outside without worrying that my mini golden doodle running away. My yard is not fenced out and I always felt bad being outside with the kids and my pup would cry and stare from the window. This was easy to install and honestly my dog learned quick to stay in the parameters. She doesn’t seem uncomfortable and is just so happy to be able to be outside with everyone. I would definitely recommend

Safe and secure!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this! Our dog is blind in one eye and was always wondering into the street! With this we can charge it up then take him out front and not worry about his safety!

Is the collar that comes with this kit appropriate for tiny dogs? Mine is barely 9 pounds and I want a collar that's light so they can play freely. Or, are tiny dog collars available separately? If so, what would the part number be for that? Thank you!
- Thank you for reaching out with this question. This collar is rated for dogs 5lb and up and there would not be another model of collar that will work with this system.
Helpful?
This says that it will keep correcting them if they get out of the boundary. But then it says only until it is unsafe. How long will it keep correcting once outside the boundary?
- Thank you for this question. Should your dog leave the boundary, the collar will provide a correction up until they return to the boundary or 15 seconds has passed, whichever comes first. After they have been outside the boundary for 15 seconds, the collar will lock out and will not provide any further correction until they re-enter the boundary and attempt to leave once more. Should you have any further questions about this system, feel free to give us a call at 1-800-732-2677.

Does this work above ground. I live in Alaska and our ground is frozen. Also is it the collar that shocks or is it the result of a ground similar to an electric fence. Those don’t work in Alaska in the winter time because it’s so dry. Thx.
- Thank you for your great question. You can absolutely use this fence above ground. Please note, however, that this may present a trip risk, so please use caution or mark your fence accordingly. There is no electrical current carried through the wire. The wire carries radio signal, and when the collar receives that radio signal, it then knows to activate.
Helpful?
Does the colar stay on all day till going to bed. Even tho in and out of house many times?
- Thank you for your question! We typically recommend that the collars be removed when your dog comes inside, if possible, but can be left on if needed. However, the collars should be worn for no longer than 12 hours at a time.
Helpful?
If a dog escapes the boundary and later returns to the yard, will the system allow the dog to return to the yard without shock?
- Thank you for your question! Unlike our other in-ground fence systems, the collar will only activate going out rather than in. So, if your dog leaves the boundary area and then later returns, the collar will not activate when it comes back into the boundary area.
Helpful?
Do other collars work with this system?
- Great question! At this time, only YardMax receiver collars will be compatible with the YardMax In-Ground Fence.
Helpful?
how much underground wire can i put together for underground fence ? i have 5 acre and want to do sumthing
- The YardMax System is designed to contain up to about 2800 feet of wire (or 10 acres depending on your layout).
Helpful?
how deep do you have to bury the wire?
- Thank you for your interest in PetSafe® products. The boundary wire for all PetSafe In-Ground Fences should be buried approximately 1 to 3 inches deep.
