How DogWatch Keeps Your Pets Safe

As pet owners, prioritizing the well-being and safety of our animals is of utmost importance. At DogWatch®, we understand these concerns and strive to meet them with our highly effective and exceptionally safe hidden fences. Our pet containment systems are designed to cater to pets of all sizes, providing them with the protection they need. They also have gained the trust of veterinarians, animal care professionals, and dog trainers worldwide.


The hidden barrier system relies on your pet’s radio collar. This collar effectively detects signals transmitted through an underground wire, ensuring that your pet remains safely within a designated area. As your pet gets close to the perimeter wire, the collar emits a clear auditory signal, serving as a warning to prevent them from crossing the boundary. 


If your pet disregards the initial alert and enters the correction zone, the receiver collar administers a gentle corrective stimulus. However, with a straightforward training program that incorporates visual cues such as flags, most dogs quickly learn to recognize the boundary and stop upon hearing the warning tone.

As your pet nears the perimeter wire, the collar emits a distinct auditory signal, giving it a warning to prevent him or her from crossing the designated boundary.


Should your pet ignore the initial auditory alert and move into the correction zone, a gentle corrective stimulus is issued by the receiver collar. However, after a straightforward training program that uses flags as visual cues, most dogs quickly learn to recognize the boundary and halt upon hearing the warning tone.

Does the “Correction” Hurt My Dog?

When your dog gets near the hidden fence, the system delivers a gentle static shock that can be likened to the sensation of a static shock you’d get after shuffling your feet against the carpet. Although the sensation may startle your pet, rest assured that it isn’t harmful. This mild correction is typically effective in deterring most dogs (and cats) from entering the correction zone. You have complete control over the intensity of the corrective stimulus, allowing you to tailor it to your pet's size and temperament. If you need to designate restricted areas within your home, we also offer indoor invisible pet fencing options.
