A revolution in pet containment, the new SmartFence® by DogWatch® keeps you connected to your dog and your system in a whole new way. The next generation of hidden fences – much more than just another dog fence!

1200Fence, being the most basic hidden fence system, is easy to install and use. Advanced technology like Patented SafeLink® FM technology and FastReact® allows a seamless functioning of the device. It also brings in a lot of flexibility in terms of training your dog with its four feedback levels and wide range of settings. The device and the dog collar, which has the receiver, are made of high-quality materials that are waterproof, immune to lightning, and function efficiently under all weather conditions.


     Entry-level system — no-fuss feature set

     Patented SafeLink® FM technology — minimizes radio signal interference

     FastReact® — warning signal is sent out to the collar well before it reaches the line

     Battery status light — indicates when the batteries are due for a change

     Four, feedback levels — gives extra flexibility in training your dog

     High impact waterproof collar — prevents accidental breakages or shut-offs due to rough play, cold, heat, or humidity

     Lightning protection — includes internal and external surge protection, such as from lightning and power surges coming from your home

     Range setting — lets you adjust the range of the signal and also warns if the wire breaks

     GentleFit contact posts — easy on the dog’s skin for frictionless feedback

     Lifetime equipment warranty

     30-day money-back guarantee

The ProFence sets the standard for reliable, owner-friendly pet containment. Our exclusive SafeLink® FM technology and industry-leading safety features provide freedom, safety and peace of mind you won’t find in other underground dog fences.

In addition to the features of the 1200Fence, the ProFence has an automatic shutdown feature to prevent over-correcting your dog. In the absence of this feature, repetitive electrical stimulation can be really uncomfortable for your dog.

It also comes with a loop monitor that notifies you about any wire breakage in advance. Another brilliant feature of this fence is the Tattletale, which informs you of any challenges to the fence within the last 24 hours. It also comes with an option of audio or vibration proximity alert, which is great for dogs with impaired hearing.

Here is a quick overview of all the features of ProFence

     TattleTale™ — indicates if there have been any challenges to the fence within the last 24 hours.

     Audible or vibration proximity alert — great for dogs with impaired hearing

The 1200Fence has all the safety, reliability and quality of our full-featured ProFence – but with fewer setting options. Get all the technology and performance you’ve come to expect from DogWatch in a more economical package.

SmartFences comes with all the features that ProFence has. On top of that, it also offers customizable notifications to alert you that your dog was trying to step out of your property. These devices have customizable contacts where you can include the other members of the family as well. As a result, even if you are not around, some other family member would be aware of the situation.

These notifications are all connected to the WebApp, which you can use to keep an eye on the settings of the hidden fence remotely. This app keeps you updated about your dog’s every breaking-out attempt. It also lets you know if there is a power loss so that you can keep an eye on the dog while the device is out. The user-friendly interface also allows you to monitor all activities daily, weekly, and monthly. You can also use it for multiple pet profiles.

Here is a quick overview of all its features:

“I can highly recommend Zoolio Hidden Fences.  Tiaan and the team were super responsive from our initial enquiries and provided excellent information about their product and ongoing services including a really helpful YouTube clip.  Our fence was installed quickly and efficiently, and we could not be happier that our dogs can once again roam freely on our property and can no longer escape and come to harm.”

Google Review
We had the Hidden Fence installed several months ago. Our dogs were constantly trying to escape our large section and go further afield for adventures! It has worked brilliantly. We were worried about the dogs getting lots of shocks as we really believe in positive reinforcement. However both dogs have only ever got close enough to the boundary to get two very low level shocks. Not at all painful as I tried it. Since then they have happily remained on our property. I highly recommend this product. It is keeping our precious doggos safe :)

Hidden Dog Fence FAQ

What is a hidden fence?

Hidden dog fences are an underground pet fencing system that uses a radio signal to keep your dog in a designated area, such as a front yard or backyard. Likewise, hidden fences also keep your dog out of an area, such as a swimming pool area, patio, or garden. 

Hidden fences can also be used to create Indoor Boundaries that keep your dog from entering specific areas in your home.

Do I Need a Hidden Dog Fence?

It’s not easy to teach a dog to stay on your property leash less. Losing your little furry friend can be a nightmare. After all, dogs are no less than your family. Even the thought of them wandering away and not being able to find their way back is terrifying, isn't it? Understandably, dog owners are always anxious to keep an eye on their canine friends.

It's not like dogs do it on purpose. For them, it's a whole exciting world out there that they want to explore. And that’s why they runoff from your property. After all, they do not have the intelligence to think about the consequences.

But you do not have to worry about a wandering dog ever again. All that you need to do is get a hidden dog fence installed. Hidden dog fence systems offer the perfect solution to this problem without making your dog feel suffocated as physical fences do.

So do you need a hidden dog fence system? The answer comes down to how much you value peace of mind.

How do hidden dog fences work?

Hidden fences are created by burying a ‘boundary wire’ a few inches underground around your property. The buried wire carries a harmless  radio signal from a transmitter installed in either your home or garage. 

Your dog is equipped with a lightweight, waterproof collar that picks up the radio signal. As your dog approaches the buried wire, the  collar emits a warning signal (audible or vibration). 

If your dog travels further, he or she will receive a mild but safe stimulation from the collar. Through training, your dog learns to stop at the warning signal. Although there are differences in some of the product features, this is how all hidden dog fences work.

With an indoor system, the hidden wire runs around your couch, under the lip of the counter, around the trash or across a doorway or wherever you need to create either a containment area or an “off-limits” area. We also have “wireless” indoor units that do not require placement of a boundary wire. Contact your local DogWatch Dealer to discuss your options.

How does my dog learn to use the hidden dog fence?

Training is an essential part of the learning process. After we install the hidden fence, we work with you to train your pet. The training includes teaching your pet to recognize the area boundaries through a combination of voice commands, audible warning signals from the collar and with visual flags that are set in the yard where the pet hears the warning alert. 

Throughout the training, the dog will remember the placement of the flags and associates the flags with the warning signal. As the dog learns, the flags are slowly removed. 

We will initiate the training and provide thorough instructions and support so you can complete and reinforce the training. After the initial training, your dog goes through a training session with you for a few minutes each day for about two weeks. We will create a training routine that is custom-tailored to your dog's needs.

Will the stimulation from a hidden dog fence collar hurt my dog?

No - the stimulation is unpleasant, but it will not “burn” or injure your pet. It is a sensation similar to the static shock. It is uncomfortable, but it will not harm you.

How much do hidden fences cost?

The cost for a Hidden Fence is usually always far less than traditional fence solutions. Due to several variables, such as property size, boundary needs, etc., the cost of a hidden fence installation varies from customer-to-customer.

Why Should You Buy a Hidden Dog Fence?

A hidden fence system comes with a host of benefits, but in particular, two primary uses make every dog owner’s life easier:

It Gives Your Dog A Safe Environment:
House dogs cannot survive the streets. Or even if they do, it will be extremely difficult for them. The high traffic on the roads, speeding cars, and of course, the threat of street dogs pouncing upon your gentle house dog makes the world outside terrifying for them. So, hidden fence systems actually helps you protect your dog. They can play, run and jump as much as they want within the safety of your property.

It Gives You Peace of Mind:
No matter how much you love your dog, no owner can give their dogs their undivided attention for hours on a stretch. Without a hidden fence, you would live with the fear that your dog might run away. This could seriously disrupt your concentration on your work or chores. But with hidden fence systems, you can be assured that your dog will stay within your property even in your absence.

Advantages of Hidden Dog Fences

  • Reusability: The first advantage is that a hidden dog fence is reusable. If you’re planning to move, you can dismantle the hidden dog fence systems and install it in your new location. You can also buy another kit and get it installed at your new home. A dog trained by a hidden dog fence will adjust right away and expect the same feedback and boundaries it had at the old place.
  • Customization: Another huge advantage of a hidden dog fence is its customizability. A hidden dog fence can be tweaked to suit your dog’s needs on the spot. As your daily routine changes, the hidden fence can be adapted to follow without missing a beat.
  • Convenience: Hidden fences require much less time and effort in comparison to constructing traditional fences. While traditional fences take about four days to a week to be built (depending on your property’s area), hidden fences can be installed within just a couple of days.
  • Also, there are quite a few rules enforced by your local authority when it comes to installing a traditional fence. However, given that most hidden fences are installed under the ground, most cities do not require you to get any additional permit to install them.
  • Better Security: Traditional fences might not be the perfect solution to contain your dog and prevent them from running away. Certain dogs tend to jump over fences or dig a hole underneath or even chew it to break through it. However, a hidden fence establishes a mental limitation in their minds which works better to keep them from exploring unknown territories.
  • Aesthetics: People often spend a fortune to grow a beautiful garden and landscape. Although you want to protect your dog, it can be pretty heartbreaking to give up your gorgeous landscaping for the cause. If this sounds like one of your concerns, a hidden fence is the perfect match for you. They keep your dogs away from the boundary without concealing the beauty of your property.
  • Zero Chances of Human Error: As the saying goes, “To err is human”, so sometimes owners forget to close the gate or put the dog on a leash. In this case, there are high chances of your dog venturing out. However, with hidden fences, even if you forget to take these precautions, the fence will take care of your dog and keep it within your property.
  • Affordable: Hidden fences are your savior if you are running on a tight budget. They come at a reasonable price, unlike traditional fences. Specific neighborhoods have strict fence construction codes that require you to use specific kinds of material (like a specific wood or metal) to construct your fence.

Things To Keep In Mind While Installing Hidden Fences

Undoubtedly, hidden fences provide a comprehensive solution when it comes to keeping your dog safe. However, there are certain things that you need to keep in mind:
  • Hidden fences prevent your dog from going out. They do not prevent hazards or unwanted trouble from entering your property.
  • Your dog might be frustrated for not being able to roam freely in the initial days. While our comprehensive training takes care of that, you, too, need to be cooperative to calm your agitated dog.
  • Keep a lookout for power loss and dead batteries. The fence will not be operational under these circumstances.
  • You need to keep in mind all the sensitive fixtures, such as utilities and the septic system, including the spots where the dog can get hurt, such as thorny bushes.
  • The dog fence lines would ideally meet at a slight angle to create rounded corners and avoid the signal interfering with itself and other signals.
  • If you have a robot lawn mower you need to be careful not to cross the wires of the dog fence and the lawn mower. They will interfere with each other and the lawn mower will stop working.
