Wireless Dog Fence
Wireless dog fences are a great option for those people who cannot or do not want to bury wire in the ground, those who desire portability, and those who plan to use their containment system in the field. Electric dog fences used to be limited to the traditional buried wire variety, but no more! While the traditional in-ground electric dog fence is still the more reliable and customizable choice, the newer wireless options are increasing in popularity.

Wireless Dog Fence Benefits
Wireless dog fencing offers many more options today than in the past. Manufacturers offer indoor wireless fences, outdoor wireless fences and even combination containment, remote training and tracking systems that function primarily on GPS. The technology has improved dramatically in recent years. When wireless fences were first invented, there was only one available option and it wasn’t very reliable. Now we have several manufacturers offering a range of technologies and feature rich wireless fence options.
Wireless pet fences are an ideal choice for the dog owner who moves frequently or who is unable to bury a wire in their yard. Wireless fences are the perfect solution for pets on the go – their portability is ideal for RVs or mobile homes. The components include a transmitter (base unit), removable training flags, and a receiver collar for your dog to wear. The set up requires no tools or special equipment. A wireless fence is a simple hour or two project.
Radio Signal Wireless Dog Fences
Wireless fences are a favorite choice for general use wireless containment.
The Stay + Play Wireless Fence will contain any number of dogs within up to ¾ of an acre. The system features a small, rechargeable, waterproof receiver collar.
Wireless Dog Fence will cover up to ½ acre of containment and uses a replaceable battery. Please see our product information pages for more detailed information.
WiFi Dog Fences
Another option is the Perimeter Technologies WiFi dog fence. This system operates on wireless technology similar to smartphones and other portable electronic devices. The Perimeter WiFi fence covers up to 2 ½ acres and can accommodate up to two dogs simultaneously. The WiFi dog fence offers some cutting-edge and useful technology like digital frequency encoding, but is still lacking in reliability even compared to other wireless fence options.
GPS Dog Fences
The newest wireless system available functions primarily using GPS satellite communication and is the only truly portable electric dog fence containment system designed to be used in the field or in motion. The DE Systems Border Patrol Wireless System is an electric fence, remote training, and tracking system all wrapped up into one neat little portable bundle. The handheld, walkie talkie sized, transmitter is the first of its kind – a revolution in wireless containment in the field. The GPS technology is incredibly accurate, even at the max distances but may be cost-prohibitive for most people.
Wireless Dog Fence Extra Collars
Most pet containment systems may be used with multiple dogs but the system usually comes packaged with just a single collar. If you wish to add one or two more pets to your pet containment fencing system, you simply need to purchase additional compatible collars. Depending on the wireless fence you use, there may be one or several collar models that are compatible.
Wireless Fence Batteries and Chargers
The leading cause of breakouts is a dead collar battery. To avoid breakouts and keep your dog safe, always keep spare batteries or a working charger on hand. Whether your fence collar uses replaceable or rechargeable batteries depends on the specific system. Wireless pet fences are designed to be reliable, convenient, easy to use, and long-lasting so simply find a wireless fence battery and charger in our product selection and your unit will be back to working properly again.
Wireless Fence Extra Transmitters
Extra transmitters are available as replacements or upgrades as well as for expansion purposes. Wireless fence perimeters can be expanded through the addition of an overlapping transmitter. In order to expand your system you’ll install the transmitters and set the boundary size in such a way that the two radio signal circles will overlap to create a larger oval-shaped containment zone. This expansion capacity is particularly useful for larger and rectangular properties.
