What happens when a dog runs through an invisible fence? ›

Potential Injury to the Dog

Not only is the shock from approaching and crossing the boundary painful for dogs, but the invisible fence collar itself can cause injury. The metal prongs that deliver the shock can rub against the dog's neck and wear away the fur, possibly leading to open wounds and infections.

Do a Short Loop to test for a broken dog fence wire. A short loop test should stop the beeping and test the invisible dog fence transmitter as well - if it stops beeping when you made a short loop there is a break somewhere or a bad connection.

If your pet has escaped the fence boundary, immediately remove his collar and put him in a safe, contained space. There are many reasons why your pet may have escaped the boundary. Improper collar fit, a base unit without power, or maybe your dog was determined to chase the neighborhood squirrel.

Many people think an invisible underground wireless electric fence is the best way to keep their dog in their yard. However, they are simply not as effective as you might think. Statistics suggest that invisible wireless electric fences are only about 70% effective.

Walk the collar on the test light tool toward the wire at knee height. The collar should activate at approximately 2.5 feet and the tool will flash. Set the base unit to 5 and test again with the test light tool. The collar should activate approximately 5 feet from the wire.

To start, turn your Wire Locator Receiver on near the transmitter. You should hear a very distinctive solid tone. As you walk away from the transmitter the tone will disappear. Hold the Signal Receiver Pendulum near the ground and walk towards the wire.

Fortunately, most dogs remember their initial training and respect the perimeter even when the fence is not electrified. Escape. If the dog sees something he really wants to chase or is frightened by thunder or something inside the yard, he may breach the electric fence ignoring the electric stimulus.

But no matter how high you get, it can't hurt your dog. His reaction will increase as the level increases, though. The feeling he feels is similar to a carpet shock or touching your tongue to a 9-volt battery. The only way a dog's neck can get hurt from a dog fence is if the collar stays on too long.

Some systems will work up to 30 feet from the boundary and as close as a foot. Just make sure that your dog has room to roam and play without feeling discomfort. Other basics to keep in mind: Don't run the wire alongside electrical wires, telephone wires, television cables, antenna wires or near satellite dishes.

The signature of a power outage is steeper than the loss of a signal when your dog leaves the boundary or when the transmitter is unplugged. Typically, the receiver collar your dog wears is able to recognize the difference and should not activate if the power is lost.
