The SDF-100 is the perfect solution for dogs of any temperament. Irrespective of whether the pet is stubborn or irresolute, the Sportdog SDF-100 can free the pet owners from the hassle of pet containment with ease.

How It Works

The fence transmitter unit, which is plugged into the wire socket, emits radio waves that extend to the far end of the preset boundary, which is set via the wire looping. The pet is trained to the presence of the predefined safe zone using the training flags for visual aid for the first couple of weeks.

If the dog disregards the warning sound and tries to cross the boundaries, the collar it wears will deliver static shocks in increasing intensity in order to train it to stay within the area assigned to the animal.

The collar provided with the system is water proof and can resist any type of weather; it also works with a 9 volts battery that has to be replaced every 6 to 12 months. The Sportdog's SDF-100 includes a DVD with instructions on how to install the system and how to use it to train your dog.

Other Features

For extra safety, the Sportdog's in ground fence has a feature called anti-linger, which prevents your dog from escaping its assigned area even after the batteries are out of power. Also, the level of punishment administered to the dog can be selected from a range of intensities, so you can administer it according to how temperamental your dog is. Other features that are worth mentioning are the indicator of battery level and the collar that can be adjusted to almost any size of dog's neck.

The collar that comes with the SDF-100 can be used on dogs that weight at least 4 kilograms and a half. It's not recommended for small breeds. The SDF-100 set includes 1000 feet of boundary wire and 100 training flags. In addition, you can buy additional collars if you have more than one dog.

If you have a dog that has a strong character, then you need the SDF-100. The system gives correction to dogs in doses that match the animal's temperament. You can buy extra wire to give the Sportdog's SDF-100 a larger area of coverage.
