Why Choose DogFence?
At DogFence, we provide the UK’s most trusted electronic pet containment system, helping you keep your dog safely within your property boundaries — without the need for traditional fencing. Trusted by UK pet owners since 2003, our system offers a secure solution for dogs and cats that dig, jump, or wander.
Our dog boundary fence uses a discreet underground wire that carries a digital FM radio signal — creating a consistent, invisible boundary. Your pet wears a lightweight, waterproof collar that gives an audible warning if they approach the line. Backed by customisable pet training, most pets learn their safe zone in just a few days.
Unlike GPS or wireless dog fences, our FM technology isn’t affected by terrain, buildings or trees, making it ideal for UK properties. With over 20,000 dogs and cats safely contained, we’ve earned our reputation for quality, reliability and results.
Whether you’re looking to stop your dog escaping the garden or create a safe outdoor space for your cat, DogFence offers a modern, humane alternative to traditional fencing — and peace of mind for you.
Worried About Your Dog Escaping
Is your dog escaping from the garden, running into the road, or chasing livestock?
You’re not alone. Thousands of UK pet owners face the daily worry of keeping their dog safe and secure at home. That’s where DogFence comes in. Our advanced invisible dog fence system offers a reliable, humane way to prevent your dog from running away — whether they’re a jumper, digger, or a determined explorer.
Designed for safety and peace of mind, our pet containment solution gives your dog or cat the freedom they deserve — without the need for costly, unsightly traditional fencing.
With over 22 years of experience, DogFence is trusted by thousands of families across the UK. With traffic hazards and pet theft on the rise, keeping your pets safe can feel overwhelming. Our invisible pet fence offers a secure, safe and affordable solution — giving your pets the freedom they love and you, peace of mind.
How Our Dog Fence Works
Our hidden dog fence system creates a safe, invisible boundary that teaches your dog where they can and can’t go — without the need for unsightly or expensive traditional fencing. A discreet cable is buried around your garden or property and connects to a central control unit inside your home. Your dog wears a lightweight receiver collar that communicates with the wire via a digital FM radio signal.
As your dog approaches the boundary:
- They hear an audible beep as a warning.
- If they continue, the collar delivers a mild static correction — like a gentle muscle twitch from a TENS machine.
- Most dogs learn their safe zone within just a few short training sessions.
It’s fast, reliable, and completely safe. Our expert installers provide full training, and our containment promise gives you complete peace of mind. For more answers, visit our FAQs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the static correction safe for my dog?
Yes, it’s a harmless sensation similar to a muscle stimulator. It simply gets your dog’s attention; it is not an electric shock!
Will the fence work for large or stubborn dogs?
Absolutely. Our system is tailored to your dog’s size and temperament, making it ideal for everything from terriers to large breeds. This is all down to correct training.
Can it be used for cats too?
Yes! We offer specialist cat containment training and lighter collars designed specifically for cats and an indoor training programme.
How long does training take?
Most pets understand the system within 3 to 5 days. We provide full training and ongoing support to ensure success.
How is DogFence different from GPS and wireless fences?
Unlike GPS and wireless systems, DogFence uses digital FM radio signal for maximum precision and reliability. Our fences respond faster, are not affected by terrain, trees or buildings, and are ideal for UK properties where GPS often fails.
What happens if my dog ignores the warning?
Our expert trainers teach your dog to respond to the audible alert before correction is ever needed. If ignored, the collar delivers a harmless static impulse — similar to a TENS machine. It’s safe, effective, and tailored to your dog’s size and temperament.

What the Experts Say
I have used Dogfence for my Labrador for four years now, and more recently have bought a collar for the terrier. It has made a huge difference to my dogs lives – now they are able to mooch around the paddocks and be outside all day, while before we had DogFence they had to be shut up all the time. Dogfence works reliably and effectively.
I recommend DogFence unreservedly. I believe it can enrich the lives of dogs enormously.
