How Underground Dog Fences Work


Hidden dog fences are a safe, effective and hidden way to contain your dog within its boundary. With this type of product your dog can be contained to your property without having to pay the expensive cost of a traditional fence, which can be unsightly, and your dog may just climb over, dig under, or chew through it.


With hidden fencing the pet can also be in the front yard. Dogs are nosey animals and hate being stuck in the back yard where they can't see what's going on. When they are in the back, every sound they hear they think may be you, thus building up a lot of frustration. Allowing the dog to go to the front yard will satisfy his curiosity, thus making your dog more calm. The front yard offers your dog entertainment. He gets to see the mail man, the FedEx truck, the UPS truck, the school bus, and other things of interest including you, when you arrive home. You can create off areas with electronic fencing, such as a pool, flower or garden area. You can have your front yard separate from your back yard. If your pet runs out the front door he can be contained.

Installation is easy. The buried wire boundary can be installed in virtually any configuration the owner chooses. Simply place the boundary wire in any configuration you choose.

When a dog approaches the boundary area, he receives a warning tone. After a two second delay, if the dog hasn't retreated, the tone is followed by a mild electrical stimulus, which is set to match his temperament. If he still continues toward the boundary, Innotek's exclusive Dual Zone feature boosts the stimulation to the highest level, helping prevent run-through. Most dogs learn to avoid the boundary area in a short time.
