Having an in-ground fence is a great way to keep your dog contained in your yard while still giving them the freedom to roam and play. The Premier Pet In-Ground Fence is a popular choice for pet owners because it is easy to install and use. Here are the steps on how to set up your Premier Pet In-Ground Fence.

How to Set Up Premier Pet In-Ground Fence

Step 1: Plan Your Fence Layout

Before you start digging, you need to plan your fence layout. The first step is to measure your yard to determine how much wire you will need. You also need to decide where you want to place the transmitter and the receiver collar on your dog. The transmitter should be placed in a central location in your yard, and the receiver collar should be placed on your dog's neck.

Step 2: Dig the Trench

Once you have planned your fence layout, you can start digging the trench. The trench should be 6 inches wide and 12 inches deep. You can use a shovel or a trenching machine to dig the trench.

Step 3: Lay the Wire

Once the trench is dug, you can start laying the wire. The wire should be laid in a continuous loop around the perimeter of your yard. Make sure that the wire is buried at least 6 inches deep to prevent it from being damaged by lawnmowers or other equipment.

Step 4: Connect the Wire to the Transmitter

Once the wire is laid, you need to connect it to the transmitter. The transmitter is the device that sends the signal to the receiver collar on your dog's neck. The transmitter should be connected to the wire using the provided connectors.

Step 5: Test the Fence

Once the fence is installed, you need to test it to make sure that it is working properly. To do this, you can walk your dog around the perimeter of the yard while wearing the receiver collar. The collar should beep when your dog gets close to the boundary wire.

Step 6: Train Your Dog

Once the fence is tested and working properly, you need to train your dog to stay within the boundaries of the fence. The best way to do this is to start by walking your dog around the perimeter of the yard on a leash. When your dog gets close to the boundary wire, give them a correction using the remote control. The correction should be enough to startle your dog, but it should not be painful.

Step 7: Enjoy Your Fence!

Once your dog is trained, you can enjoy your new in-ground fence. Your dog will be able to roam and play in the yard without you having to worry about them running away.
