What is the light on the transmitter?

The status light on the transmitter lets you know if the transmitter is turned on. When using a boundary wire with the MB-2, the status light glows green only when there is a continuous signal loop. See Owner’s Guide for additional information. Note: The green light may be steady green or blinking green. This depends on the frequency setting of the transmitter.

How do I increase and decrease the signal range (the distance the signal radiates from the transmitter) to make the “off-limits” avoidance zone area larger or smaller?

On the back of the transmitter, there is a signal range knob. Turn the knob toward the ‘Max’ to increase the signal range. This increases the size of the signal field. Turn the knob toward the ‘Min’ to decrease the signal range. This decreases the size of the signal field.

Do I need separate collars for inside and outside?

You do not need separate collars. Use the same collar inside and outside.

How large can I make the “off-limits” area?

The MB-2 can be used with up to 500 ft of wire to protect a large area or create multiple “off limits” zones. When used wirelessly, the MB-2 can be adjusted up to a maximum of 13 feet in diameter (6.5 feet in all directions from the transmitter).

Can I use the MB-2 outdoors?

No, the MB-2 is designed for indoor use only. If you are looking for a portable pet fence that can be used outdoors, check out our MB-1 Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Dog Fence. Or if you are looking for a pet fence to give your dog or cat freedom in your yard, check out our wired underground Outdoor Hidden Fences. Important: Do not set the transmitter on or near large metal objects.

Not All Rules Are Meant to Be Broken

The MB-2 is our most flexible indoor boundary solution. Its transmitter works with or without a boundary wire to keep your pet(s) safe and out of trouble. The MB-2 is compatible with all DogWatch FM receivers, so if you already have an outdoor hidden fence, you can use the same collar indoors and outdoors!

You can install the MB-2 with up to 500ft wire to protect a large defined indoor area (such as a dining room or second floor). Or you can use it without a wire for greater flexibility to protect smaller areas (such as kitchen counters or litter boxes). Used wirelessly, the MB-2 can protect an area up to 13 feet in diameter (6 1/2 feet from center).

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had nothing but great quick service from Karen and her team. To request a service call is all done right on their website and it takes 30 seconds. I left a request over the weekend (last weekend. 10/10/26 and Monday Cahlil their Cracker Jack service pro was out Monday am. He texted me the issue. Fixed me up in no time.. and their fees are reasonable.  5 stars all the way.  I come from and currently work in service industry. These people check all the boxes for what makes a family business work so well. You won’t be disappointed. Also this maybe my 3rd review of a business/service I have ever done. But will go out of my way to endorse an entity  when I see excellence.

This was the best money I’ve spent! No regrets- I don’t have to worry about my dog going out of the property line. Before he was Going into the street and chasing cars. Now he has the front yard,  backyard and the side yards and I still have a beautiful view of my lake! Also Ron was very easy to work with and he made this a very easy process for me! I would highly recommend him and Dogwatch! I also love that I don’t have to charge the collar every few days! This makes it so much easier! All I have to do is replace the battery in two years for $25! If you’re Unsure about which company to use Go with them—you won’t regret it and they train you and your pet:)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am an existing customer of Dog Watch.  I had the invisible fence installed about 4 years ago when I got my Jack Russell puppy.  I had one call for repair due to yard work and they came out promptly, resolved it quickly and charged much less than expected.  This week my very active dog managed to break the collar receiver.  Of course it happened at the end of the week.  I went to the website and ordered a new one and left a voicemail.  Karen within what seemed like minutes responded that she just priority mailed it.  Now THAT is customer service!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Since our initial install (3 dogs ago) Ron & Karen have been there for us, from supplying small things, like extra batteries, to the many repairs we needed over the years due to one thing or another.
They are always available, sweet & fair to deal with.
We have recommended them many times over the years and will continue to do so for many to come!
Thanks for keeping our fur babies safe! :-)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Dog Watch Hidden Fence works great! The installation was seamless & they were able to do it without hitting any of the buried lines for my irrigation system. Ron & Karen are great to work with! I highly recommend them for your hidden dog containment fence.

You Asked, We Answered

DogWatch Indoor Pet Fences emit a radio signal that is detected by the receiver collar worn by your pet—the same way the outdoor hidden fence systems work. As your pet approaches the signal field (initially marked with a series of flags to help your pet identify the area), the receiver collar begins to emit an audible (or vibration) warning beep. If your pet goes beyond the warning zone, the warning is quickly followed by a ‘correction’—a mild electrical stimulation from the receiver collar. With proper training, your pet will quickly learn to stay away from areas that he associates with the warning.
