How the Underground Dog Fence Works
The ProFence 1200 sends a coded FM signal around the buried boundary wire. As your dog approaches the signal:
- First: The collar emits a clear audible warning.
- Then: If the dog continues, a gentle, adjustable correction encourages them to retreat to the safe area.
With training most dogs learn the system within a few days using our step-by-step training plan. Read more about How the dog fence works. This invisible dog fence system gives you consistent, reliable boundary control without installing physical fencing.
