[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PetSafe Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence: A Reliable Solution for Boundary Training The PetSafe Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence has proven to be an incredibly effective tool for establishing clear and safe boundaries for our determined canine companion. It offers peace of mind and allows our dog the freedom to enjoy the yard within defined limits. Effectiveness: This system delivers on its promise of containing even the most persistent dogs. The progressive correction levels are a key feature, allowing you to tailor the training to your dog's specific temperament. Once the training period is complete, our dog quickly learned and respects the boundaries, allowing for safe and enjoyable outdoor time. Durability: The components of the PetSafe Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence are built to last. The wire is robust and designed to withstand the elements. The collar receiver also feels durable and capable of handling the wear and tear of an active dog's outdoor adventures. This gives confidence in the long-term reliability of the system. Range: The amount of wire included in the standard kit provides ample coverage for a typical yard. Furthermore, the option to purchase additional wire allows for customization and expansion of the containment area to suit larger properties or unique landscaping. This flexibility is a significant advantage. Safety: Safety is paramount when it comes to our pets, and this system has several features that prioritize it. The progressive correction ensures that the stimulation is appropriate and humane. Additionally, the safety shut-off feature prevents continuous correction if a dog remains in the boundary zone for too long. This provides an added layer of security and prevents accidental over-correction. Installation: While it requires some initial effort, the installation process is manageable with clear instructions. The ability to customize the layout of the boundary wire allows for flexibility in defining the safe area for your dog, accommodating gardens, driveways, and other landscape features. The included tools and guidance make the setup process straightforward. Overall: The PetSafe Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence is a worthwhile investment for pet owners seeking a reliable and effective way to keep their determined dogs safely contained within their property. Its effectiveness, durability, customizable range, safety features, and manageable installation process make it a top contender in the in-ground fence market, providing both freedom for your dog and peace of mind for you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The collar is waterproof. It has 4 static correction levels. This great, especially with no fenced-in yard and puppy, doesn't have to be tied on a leash. You bury the wire. It comes with training. You can expamd the use up to 25 acres. This one comes with up to a 1/3 an acre. It's perfect for our puppy. Our dog can roam the entire backyard. He doesn't get out. No more chasing him down the neighborhood.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The PetSafe Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence worked okay, but I had higher expectations. My stubborn escape artist has figured out ways around the system, or maybe she's just immune to the collar. She will sometimes cross the boundary line and it's like nothing is even there to stop her.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Install was easy. The details of the collar seemed cheaply made. The range was more like 15FT. It was effective but as soon as my shepherd figured it out, it was over. Might be ok for smaller dogs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a little dog that likes to leave our yard every now and then. We usually have to keep an eye on him for that reason but with this product it’s a lot easier to trust him outside. It was easy to install and keeps him inside the yard with no issue. I’m grateful for this product.

The range is great, I love how you can add to it to make the range bigger and it didn’t take too long to install. The dollar is adjustable and not too bulky. Would recommend

Amazing for my dog

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I highly recommend these systems. Yes, my dog is quite scared by the limits to this day. However, now I have the peace of mind that my pitbull will not run around the neighborhood and get into trouble or danger. Earlier this week, when I let him out, there was a cat less than 10 feet away. He quickly chased him for a few seconds and stopped immediately when the cat ran out of the yard. Perfect! The best thing about this particular necklace is that it works with 9-volt batteries. If you read reviews about other PetSafe collars, people complain a lot about the patented battery. The fact that I use 9 volts is great. I haven't even replaced it in 6 months of use. As a result, this necklace is bulky and heavy. I take it off every time my dog is at home. The actual piece of the necklace is not very high quality and I could imagine replacing it in the future if a clip breaks or something like that. : it works! Your dog will stay in the yard. - It uses 9 volt batteries and has good battery life. - The highest correction is probably too strong, but it works on large or aggressive dogs.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Gabriela! We're glad to hear this system has helped keep your dog safely in his yard. In case this information is helpful, though levels on this collar are stronger they are all very safe and response to them depends wholly on a dog's personality rather than size- some very large dogs may respond fully to the vibration and tone only level, while other very small dogs may disregard every level but the highest. We do not ever recommend the use of correction collars for dogs showing any form of aggression.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dogs are escape artists so I was shocked that I actually got a claim that could help us out! We started doing the collar training with the beeps and my dogs haven’t showed any discomfort after a little bit of positive reinforcement. I will say it was a little confusing on how to set up the fence but after a couple of videos we finally got it right.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really great product from PetSafe. Stubborn dog and ground fence makes life a lot easier knowing that my pet will stay within the perimeters that I set for it. The install is pretty easy as you can simply put it around where you want a fence or bury it underground. The call or seems like it is comfortable for the dogs and doesn't bother her at all. This is a cheaper route than having to go and buy a whole fence if you're tight on a budget. I would highly recommend this product!

We have had this system for two years and up until now it has worked great. It has suddenly stopped working although it appears to work. The system isn’t detecting an issue with the fence, we tested all of the wire, and we changed the collar batteries but it is no longer doing anything on the collars when close to or crossing the fence boundary

Husband put the fence in w/o help in about 3 days. He hand dug the trench and everything. I know, fella is impressive. It works great so far. 2 of our 3 dogs are practically trained in a little under a week, though we are still following the instructions closely. The other pup is the stubborn one, for sure. She got free to chase a squirrel yesterday on the 2nd walk of the day, so we are having to rework the training a little. Still a great system!

I've had this system for a year or so. I have a German Shepherd and roughly 2 acres for him to roam with the invisible fence. I even dug up the fence and moved it at one point. My dog would get out from time to time but it was he found a weak spot. I fixed the weak point and now he stays inside the fence no issues. If your dog is getting out, check for weak points in your fence.

Thank you for letting us know how this fence has worked for you and your shepherd! It's great to hear that it's provided so much room for him to run.
