The Most Advanced Circular-Shaped Wireless Dog Fence

Stretch the boundaries of wireless dog fencing with the Radial-Shape Havahart Wireless Dog Fence -- the industry's most advanced do-it-yourself, dog containment system that's also easy to use and economical. This is the world's first digital wireless dog containment system to offer a Roaming Area that can expand the fence radius from 40 feet up to 400 feet--that is up to 11.5 acres and close to 20 times more Roaming Area than provided by the leading brand. Capable of containing up to 2 dogs, this wireless dog fence combines powerful new breakthrough technology with a stylish, compact Controller. It is easy to install with no need for trench digging. In less than 1 hour you can have your wireless fence up and running and begin training your dog.

Cutting Edge Technology Makes Constant Communication Possible

Radial-Shape Havahart Wireless Dog Fence
Both the Havahart Wireless Collar and the Controller contain nanoLOC TRX 2.4 GHz transceiver chipsets that send and receive radio transmissions from their antennas. While other brands utilize similar technology, Havahart Wireless was able to enhance the chipsets with modular signal amplification, strategic distortion filtering and complex algorithms. These 3 enhancements boost the performance of the Havahart Wireless system over the competition giving it enhanced signal strength, smarter interference filtering and more reliable communication between the Collar and the Controller to determine the distance to your dog.

To avoid signal blockage from your dog, Havahart Wireless strategically placed the antennas inside the Collar strap. This insures that the antennas can rest on the sides of your dog's neck and have enhanced communication with the Controller. Constant, reliable wireless communication between the Controller and the Havahart Wireless Collar enables the system to track and tell you the real-time distance to your dog. Exclusive Integrated Motion Sensor Technology conserves Collar battery life when the Collar is not moving.

Roaming area
The system forms a circular shaped boundary that has a wider Trigger Zone specifically designed to keep your dog safe inside the Roaming Area and away from danger. When your dog reaches your desired fence radius distance inside the Trigger Zone, the Controller sends a signal to the Collar to take corrective action.

Safety Made a Top Priority

With a safety shut-off for the correction cycle included as a standard feature, Havahart Wireless made the safety of your dog a top priority. With one tone only and five different static correction levels, you can choose the correction level that is best for your dog. The correction cycle persists until the dog returns 10 feet back inside the Roaming Area or until the safety shut-off feature activates after 30 seconds. Unlike an underground wire fence, the Radial-Shape Wireless Dog Fence will not correct your dog for returning back into the Roaming Area.

Small, Portable Controller

A fraction of the size of competitive systems, the sleek 5-inch tall fence controller allows for ideal yet discrete placement in your home, giving your dog maximum Roaming Area. This system is also completely portable. Take the system with you when you move or go on vacation.

Digital Set-up and Digital Alerts

The easy-to-read digital LCD screen lets you set the exact distance of your fence boundary and customize correction levels for up to 2 dogs in just a few simple steps. With boundary breach and low Collar battery alerts, you can keep track of what is most precious to you. It's that easy.

Training Your Dog: Program Overview

Proper training of your dog is the most crucial element to ensure the safe and successful operation of your Havahart Wireless Dog Fence. Below is an overview of the Havahart Wireless training program. It is important that you follow the instruction manual and complete the entire training process without skipping any phases. Proper training is your most valuable key to success!
Keep your sessions short and frequent--approximately 15 minutes long, 2-3 times a day.
  • Be firm, consistent and patient.
  • End sessions with lots of playtime and praise.
  • HAVE FUN!
Preliminary Phase through Phase 2

Preliminary Phase: Flag Awareness Training (Optional)

This phase allows your dog to become familiar and comfortable with the Training Flags. Your dog will wear the Havahart Wireless Collar, but the wireless electric dog fence should be TURNED OFF.

Phase 1: Passive Training (Days 1-3)

Set the Havahart Wireless Collar to Tone-only to introduce your dog to the Trigger Zone and teach him to move away from the flags upon hearing tone.

Phase 2: Active Training (Days 4-7)

Set the Havahart Wireless Collar to a low static correction level to help discourage your dog from going beyond the Trigger Zone.
Phase 3 through Phase 5

Phase 3: On-Leash Distractions (Days 8-11)

Teach your dog to ignore distractions that might tempt him to go outside the Trigger Zone.

Phase 4: Off-Leash Supervision (Days 12-15)

Similar to on-leash distraction training, take things one step further by removing the leash. This phase will encourage your dog to move freely within the Roaming Area.

Phase 5: Dog Monitoring (Days 16 and Beyond)

Your dog should be comfortable within the Roaming Area and reluctant to cross into the Trigger Zone with or without distractions. You should keep an eye on your dog after completing the training and monitor his behavior. Additional training may prove to be necessary. After three additional weeks of successful dog containment, you can begin to gradually remove the training flags by taking away every other flag, every few days.
Remember every dog is unique and may respond differently depending on age, size, temperament and ability to learn. Adjust your training accordingly.
