In Reply to: Needed: "Invisible fence" for dogs schematic posted by Titel on December 28, 2001 at 19:09:34:
Hi everyone,
Just to let you know, I was unable to find such a schematic online, or documentations on what the perimeter delimitation underground wire should do to the dog. At this point I assume that the wire is only a low power antenna for a RF transmitter, and the receiver is built-into a collar for the dog. Whenever the dog approaches the wire, two metallic prongs in contact with dog's skin administer a mild electric shock. There are a few dog training products out there which have such a receiver, but the remote control is operated by the owner; perhaps someone could take apart one of these kits and modify them. Just an idea.
By now, the dog grew older and doesn't run out of the yard that often, so I'm no longer interested in this project. But if anyone else wants to continue the search, please post here the results!
Thanks, best regards,
Titel
