Where do I put the flags in relation to the buried wire?
The boundary flags must be placed on the inner edge of your boundary, at the point where the warning signal on your pets collar begins to activate. You never want to place the flags further into the middle of his “warning zone”, because by doing so, you are telling him that it is OK to be in areas where the warning signal and shock are present. The boundary flags should be placed a maximum of 10 feet apart from each other along your entire boundary. Also, it is important to make sure the boundary is at least 5′ from the buried wire.
