I am considering an inground fence system and would like your suggestion as to which to purchase. I have a 14 month old lab who is 95 pounds (trying to get her down to 85 pounds) and a 10 week old lab puppy whose parents ranged between 55 and 70 pounds. We obviously would not consider using a collar on the pup until at least 6 months (and could wait until 1 year). Also, we have an inground pool so the collar needs to be waterproof. I like the Innotec 4100, but I am concerned with possible weight difference on the two dogs.

ADMIN – Hi Nancy,

Hi Nancy,

The Innotek IUC-4100 would be a good choice. Because they are the same breed, and they are both labs so are going to be pretty easy to train and I think they are likely to need the same correction level. (medium on the Innotek 4100) If you did want something with independent correction levels, the SportDog or the PetSafe Stubborn would be good choices. All three systems I just mentioned are waterproof.

I saw a website for hidden fence and they were promoting Pet Stop UltraElite Receiver and Pet Stop products. I didn’t see a review for their products. Any information on this system?

ADMIN – Hi Joe,

Pet Stop is a full service installation company owned by Perimeter Technologies. The systems they sell look very similar to the Perimeter Technologies self-installation systems, but I have never seen them in person and don’t know if the functionality is any different.

Will my old Petsafe collars work on the sport dog100 system? If not do they make collars for small dogs with that system?

ADMIN – Hi Mike,

Do you know what PetSafe collar you have? All the current Petsafe inground collars work with the Sportdog sdf-100 (and vice-versa)
