Design a layout that is suitable for your yard. Sample layouts are provided in this section, •
and a grid for designing your layout is provided in the back of this guide.
Fence planning software is available online at www.petsafe.net/fence.•
Always use gradual turns at the corners with a minimum of 3 foot radius to produce•
a more consistent boundary (2B). Do not use sharp turns, as this will cause gaps in
your boundary.
To properly contain your pet, we recommend setting a Boundary Width for the •
Warning and Static Correction Zones to approximately 12-20 feet (6 to 10 feet on each
side of the wire).
Avoid making passageways too narrow for your pet to move about freely (e.g., along the •
sides of a house).
The Receiver Collar can be activated inside the house if the Boundary Wire runs along •
the outside wall of the house. If this occurs, remove your pet’s Receiver Collar before
bringing him inside, decrease the range using the Boundary Width Control knob or
consider an alternative layout.
Sample Layouts

Sample 1:
Perimeter Loop
(Single Loop) The
Perimeter Loop is
the most common
layout. This will
allow your pet to
freely and safely
roam your entire
property (2C). It
can also protect
gardens, pools and
landscaping (2D).

Sample 2 (2E): Perimeter Loop
Using Existing Fence (Single
Loop) This layout allows you to
include your existing fence as part of
your layout and keep your pet from
jumping out or digging under your
existing fence. It reduces the amount
of wire which will need to be buried.
From the Fence Transmitter, run the
wire to A, A to B, B to C, C to D,
D to E, E to A, twist the wires from
A back to the Fence Transmitter.
See the “Install the Boundary Wire”
section for more information on
attaching the wire to a fence.
