Common Questions
DogWatch of Augusta-Aiken proudly services Augusta-Aiken and the surrounding areas, including Thomson, Georgia. Being local to the area, we are very familiar with the neighborhoods and properties, allowing for tailored hidden fence solutions.
While 'invisible fence' is often used as a generic term, it's actually a brand name. DogWatch hidden fences stand out due to our superior product offering, featuring FM Safelink design and a longer battery life of 2 years compared to the competitor's 3-4 months. We also offer a user-friendly transmitter for easy adjustments.
The DogWatch system uses a buried 'boundary wire' that emits a radio signal. Your dog wears a receiver collar that picks up this signal, providing a warning (audible or vibration) as they approach the boundary. If they proceed further, a mild stimulation is delivered, teaching them to respect the designated area.
Training is crucial for the success of the hidden fence. We'll guide you through the process, teaching your dog to recognize the boundaries using voice commands, audible warnings from the collar, and visual flags. The flags are gradually removed as the dog learns to associate the warning signal with the boundary, ensuring they stay within the safe zone.
No, the stimulation is designed to be unpleasant but not harmful. It's similar to a static shock and won't burn or injure your pet. The purpose is to create a deterrent, encouraging them to stay within the boundaries of the hidden fence system.
Yes, DogWatch hidden fences are versatile and can be used both indoors and outdoors. Indoor systems can keep your pet off furniture, out of certain rooms, or away from counters. We offer both wired and wireless indoor options to suit your specific needs.
