 Really works February 24, 2008

We have a Miniature Pinscher that was an accomplished escape and evasion artist until we purchased a Petsafe Fence, and Collar.
To install the fence and collar took a day of easy work, I have a bad back and was able to do this task easily.
The instructions give a five week training period for the collar and fence to have effect. Within 10 minuets my dog was trained,and will not go near the boundary of my garden.
If you have a little dog that runs off, then this will stop them.
 Buy a new fence - it's cheaper in the long run February 19, 2008

I agree with everyone else - the price for batteries is totally rediculous! We have to replace the battery every 3-4 weeks. When I called the customer service line they said the batteries can last up to 6 months depending on how often your dog touches the line. So I asked the representative, "so you think my dog is shocking himself every day so that's why the battery is dying so fast?" She basically said yes! I don't think my dog is that stupid, I think PetSafe is just that greedy!

We have 2 small dogs and tried these collars. We were shocked to find that the batteries would only last 3-4 weeks and cost $10 each. With 2 dogs, that is over $240 a year in batteries. This week one of the collars broke and I called their customer service line. To send a replacement collar for warranty repair would cost me an $18 non refundable deposit. I gave them the choice of losing a customer or charging me $18. They chose to lose a customer. Think twice before buying these collars....
eats an $8 battery each month November 30, 2007

I've had one of these on our little dog for 3 months now and have gone through 3 batteries. The dog gets close enough to the fence to make the collar beep maybe once a week at the most, and the dog is smart so it has only been shocked a couple of times.
You've been warned.. if you buy one of these you'll most likely be spending $100/year on batteries. You can hack the little battery holder apart and put in a standard CR-1/3N battery and save about $2/month, but it's not easy cutting the battery holder apart. I'm looking for a small 3v rechargeable battery I can sneak in there.
Petsafe.. recall these.
The Most Expensive Collar You Will Ever Buy April 14, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The collar has a great design and worked great on our small dog for about a month; however, the company placed a flashing light on the model which eats the battery in about a month. The replacement batteries are specially made by the company to fit the collar and run about $10.00. Therefore, once you buy the collar to keep the collar operating for your dog you are looking at spending about $120 a year. The company has a slightly larger collar that does not have the flashing light that we use on our other small dog. Those batteries are also specially made by the company, but the battery lasts quite some time (over a year). Although our other dog is bright and once he got popped a time or two does not come near the boundaries. I wish I would have never bought this product.
