Overview

['This kit is built around a wireless transmitter rather than buried wire, so setup skips the digging and wire laying required by in-ground systems. It covers roughly an acre of yard and includes two receiver collars right out of the box, making it a ready-made option for households with two dogs over 5 lb.', "The kit comes with a remote control, a power adaptor, an RFA-67 battery, and both short and long contact points to fit different coat lengths. PetSafe built the collars with an adjustable, buckle closure design in gray, using a nylon and plastic construction that's rated for adult dogs.", "At $429.98, this is a premium option compared to single collar or wired systems, reflecting the fact that it includes two collars and skips wire installation entirely. With 62 reviews and a 3.9 star average, it has a smaller but present track record, so it's worth reading recent reviews before committing at this price point."]

Performance notes

Because this system relies on a wireless transmitter rather than buried wire, the boundary shape is generally circular around the transmitter, and coverage can be affected by hills or obstructions in the yard. The two included receiver collars, remote control, and power adaptor mean a two-dog household can set the system up without buying separate collars, and the short and long contact points help ensure good skin contact on different coat lengths.

What buyers say

With 62 reviews and a 3.9 star average, plus about 100 bought in the past month, this is a newer or lower-volume listing compared to PetSafe's more established wired fence kits, so the feedback pool is smaller to draw conclusions from.
