Electric Fences and Electric Boundary Fences are terms often used interchangeably, but there's a big difference between the two. We're here to help you understand that difference and highlight the key features you should consider when you're thinking about getting a dog containment system. 

What is an Electric Dog Fence?

An Electric Containment Fence is a smart system that works with a special collar your furry friend wears. It's increadibly user-friendly because it only provides a static correction to the animal wearing the collar, and does not affect anyone else! 

With an Electric Dog Fence, you have the freedom to set it up around your garden, property boundaries, or any area you want your beloved pet to stay in. If your dog gets too close to the boundary, they'll be corrected with a mild static shock – You can even adjust the distance of the static correction to fit your needs, as well as the strength of the static correction to suit any sized dog!

What is an Electric Fence?

An Electric Fence is a bit more straightforward. It runs an electric current around a designated area and gives a little static shock to anything that touches it.

What is the difference between an Electric Dog Fence and an Electric Fence?

Here's the key takeaways: An Electric Dog Fence smart system is all about keeping your dog safe. It only corrects your dog if they're wearing the receiver collar. This means other pets or people can comfortably get close to and cross the fence without being shocked! Whereas the Electric Fence will shock anything or anyone that touches the wire.
