- Will it work with my existing in-ground fence?
- Only if your transmitter uses the same frequency and coding as this receiver. Check your system's brand and model before buying; many brands lock receivers to their own transmitters.
- Does the box include the wire and transmitter?
- No. This is a receiver collar only. You need a compatible transmitter and boundary wire already installed, plus flags for training.
- How long does the battery last on a charge?
- Most owners get several days of normal use per charge, less if the dog tests the boundary often. Charging typically takes a couple of hours.
- Is the correction level adjustable?
- Yes, most versions offer multiple static levels plus a tone or vibration warning. Start at the lowest level and pair it with flagged training.
- Is it safe for small dogs?
- It can be, but check the collar's weight and contact-point length against your dog's neck. Very small or thin-skinned dogs may do better with a tone-only setup.
- Can I use it without the static correction?
- On most units you can set it to tone or vibration only. That works as a warning device but will not stop a determined dog on its own.
- Where is the Rechargeable Dog Electric Fence Collar cheapest?
- At Petco, for $94.99, as of our latest check.
