What happens if my dog manages to get outside the boundary of the hidden fence?
This depends on the type of containment system: buried wire or wireless. Buried wire containment systems create a “signal field” on either side of a boundary wire. Your dog receives stimulation only when he moves into this signal field on either side of the wire. So if your dog manages to get out of his yard, he cannot get back in without receiving stimulation when he re-enters the signal field. (Example: Your dog runs out of the yard and is stimulated while he breaks through the wire’s signal field. Once he clears the signal field on the other side of the wire, he no longer receives stimulation.) Wireless containment systems operate much differently. The entire “safe zone” is a signal field. As long as your dog is inside the signal field, he receives no stimulation. If he ventures out of the signal field, he receives stimulation, and continues to receive stimulation until he re-enters the signal field. (Example: Your dog runs out of the yard and receives stimulation, 30 seconds at a t
