HOW DO I TRAIN MY DOG TO USE THE RADIOPET HIDDEN FENCING SYSTEM?
Your RadioPet Ontario Dealer will provide you and your dog with an introductory GentleSteps Training session. You will also receive an easy-to-use guide outlining a proven GentleSteps Training system that use visible boundary flags (which you ultimately start removing after 30 days) voice commands and audible warning beep to teach your dog to respect the boundaries of their yard.
For best results, we recommend three-to-five GentleSteps Training sessions per day. Training should be fun and rewarding for your dog, with plenty of play and praise. Typically, your dog will learn the boundaries of their new playground within 7-10 days, and then they are roaming free.
IS THE FENCING SYSTEM EXPANDABLE FOR USE BY MORE THAN ONE PET?
Absolutely. Any number of pets may be fitted with a RadioPet receiver collar for their outdoor fun & freedom.
IS YOUR PET SAFETY SYSTEM ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?
RadioPet Ontario is just as committed to our planet’s health and it is to your pets’ safety. Our rechargeable LINK, EcoLite receiver collars mean less waste to our environment and no battery costs.
HOW SAFE IS THE RADIOPET SYSTEM FOR MY DOG?
Perfectly safe. Even when being corrected by a static stimulation (which happens during initial training), a dog receives only a fraction of energy found in a typical electricity shock! This type of static stimulation has been used in dog training since the ’70s. Our advanced Digital Modulation (DM) Signal protects your dog from unintentional false corrections caused by external stray radio sources (like garage-door openers, for example) by employing a unique digital coded signal.
I MIGHT BE MOVING IN THE NEXT YEAR OR TWO – WILL I HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW SYSTEM?
No, your RadioPet Ontario Hidden Fencing system is transferable to your new location and is flexible enough to accommodate a difference in any size of new property perimeter. Placing of new boundary flags and a quick training session and your dog will learn their new boundaries, FAST!
WHICH DOG'S ARE SUITABLE FOR THIS HIDDEN FENCE SYSTEM?
With proper training, all dogs can be contained. We guarantee it! We do, however, recommend puppy owners wait until they are about three months old before training begins.
HOW MUCH DOES A RADIOPET HIDDEN PET FENCING SYSTEM COST?
This is a much more economical fencing option than wood or chain-link, and you never have to remember to shut the gate or have your dog jump over the fence and escape. With pricing based on square-footage, the number of pets and installation options, the bottom line varies for each client. Our prices start at $1899 for fully installed 1 acre system, ask about our HOA, Home Owner Assistance Package or our 2 yr warranty system to help reduce the price. Contact us for a free quotation.
WHAT ARE THE ONGOING COSTS FOR THE SYSTEM?
There is NO ongoing cost with our Link & EcoLite RECHARGEABLE receiver collar system, no batteries to buy! Keep in mind, though, a cut loop wire or adjustments to the layout of the fencing perimeters once installed will incur a service call fee for re-location or repair. Fencing placed on the snow in winter months will be buried in the spring at no extra cost.
THE UNDERGROUND WIRE WAS ACCIDENTALLY CUT – WHAT DO WE DO?
All RadioPet Ontario transmitters are equipped with a break detector alarm that provides owners with both a audible and visual alerts, if your underground loop wire has been broken. Simply contact us at RadioPet Ontario for assistance.
