Electric Pet Fencing Product FAQ

Yes. Most of our receiver collars can be programmed to work with Invisible Fence® transmitters, as well as other electronic pet fencing brands. such as DogGuard® and Dog Watch®. We also sell Invisible Fence® compatible batteries and Invisible Fence® compatible receiver collars.

There are no size requirements – our products are designed to work on breeds both large and small. We do recommend that your pet be at least 8 weeks of age and well-adjusted to their home environment before getting trained to the fence.

Battery life is determined by how often your pet challenges the boundaries – most batteries last from 3 months to a year. When battery power is running low, the patented FlashAlert® feature will let you know, allowing you to change the batteries out before they die completely. Did you know our new EcoLite receiver is rechargeable – that means no more annual battery costs! Contact us today for more information.

No, Pet Stop of Central Georgia would never use a pet fencing product that could possibly harm your pet. We use a very low level of correction to dissuade your pet from the fence boundaries – mere tickles that are just enough to startle your pet, not hurt them.

In addition, your pet will receive a warning tone (allowing them a chance to back away from the boundary) before receiving a correction. When properly trained, most dogs will respond to the warning tone immediately, and thus no correction is even needed.

Yes, they can. Our indoor pet containment systems are particularly good at maintaining cat-free zones in the home.

No – in order to successfully contain your pet, it’s important that the receiver collar remain on and that the batteries are active.

If your pet does not receive consistent corrections when they approach the fence boundary, your fence system will lose it’s effectiveness.
