PetSafe Pawz Away Mini Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Pet Barrier Transmitter, Extra Add-A-Barrier for Dogs and Cats

I have four dogs; two are rambunctious puppies whose territory inside the house we've had to restrict. The pucks and bars available from PetSafe work beautifully; they're lightweight and portable, but my littles give them a wide berth. We move the barriers around the house according to where we are and our ability to keep our eyes on the little scamps. The pucks work best for smaller areas, like keeping the littles from dashing behind the sofa, and the bars are better for doorways, so we use both according to our needs. The beeping is enough to urge them to take a step back; only rarely have they actually engaged the vibration, which didn't hurt them at all, just startled them unpleasantly. My waggles know that when Mommy moves the barrier, it's play time!

This keeps our dog from going down the steps and out the garage door whenever she wants. It’s AWESOME.

System works great with our cats, subject to fur. Not instant results because it's not inhumane taser strength; give pets some time to learn from relativelybgentle shocks. It does run through CR2032 batteries (2 / collar, about every 2 months)' looking at rechargeables. Mini has 5' diameter (2.5' radius) max. range while regular has 12' diameter (6' radius) max. range. Range works on received signal strength and is NOT exact; e.g. I pick up a cat and their collar may start beeping at 15' because my body acts as a bigger antenna!

My 11lb Siberian cat fears nothing and would sell her soul to the devil himself if it meant she could eat butter off our counters. I did trim her hair down to make sure the contact points were touching, but she sat right on top of the transmitter while the collar was going off, totally unbothered. Maybe it would work better if I shaved her, but I’m not able or willing to go that far. We also unfortunately have a lot of metal things in and around our kitchen which messes with the transmitter’s range, so coverage was always spotty to boot (which the manufacturer does warn against).

I have a JackChi who will dart out when someone opens the door. She will follow or take off like a crazed gray hound! I own three of these!!! We take them on vacation to Grandma’s house. My parents are a little slower moving and do not notice her behind them when they open an outside door or any door. They can tell her to stay then turn around and she is in the room before they are. No more. 5 star review for these mini barriers.My dog is a foodie and will eat more than her body weight. She can get on a chair and onto the table and eat your entire takeout bag. Now I can leave food in a bowl on the table open and she will leave it. She now respects the doors and the table even without her collar on. It only took one shock, yes one, shock and she now respects the beep. I am amazed at how well this works!!

Easy to assemble and get going. The antenna in the mini disk is not omnidirectional. It is very linear/planer. I have to keep the unit up on a box to keep it in line with the collar on my Lab’s neck. This is kind of a pain as the box is in a doorway so that the Lab doesn’t eat all the cat food. On a positive note, it will get the Labs attention if he gets too close! The mini unit is also super short range. At Christmas I wanted to put it under the tree to keep the cat from going in the tree but I really don’t think it has enough range to discourage her. I wish I bought the full sized unit, not the mini. They were the same price, I just goofed up buying. My bad :(

I’m using it to keep my puppy out of the cat boxes. I was so pleased with the results that I purchased an additional mini unit. Puppy has only been zapped twice and now steers clear of the cat box areas. I love that you can set the distance of the barrier which allows the dog to roam freely even close to the boxes.

I bought this sanity saver to keep our Beagle out of the kitchen. If you know anything about beagles, they are freaking smart..too smart. In 1 day our over stuffed burrito beagle ate 1/2 a lasagna and 3/4 of a pot roast. In less than 10 minutes while I answered the door. It was a battle of witts and that little heathen was winning! I tried a static matt.....he figured if he ran really fast he could bypass the system. I put child locks on cabinets..Houdini learned to pick locks...many many many loaves of bread and bagels gone in seconds. For the first time since we rescued this little jerk ( I say this with love cause he's our jerk now) I with confidence say I have WON!!! Take that BINKS!! So since I have purchased this sanity saver he has not once been in the kitchen! And..he can't figure out to bypass it because there is none. I can now cook in peace, leave things on th3 counter while I'm prepping with no anxiety. ( he was on our gas stove once) BRILLIANT!!! I don't know about the battery life. I do know we are a month in and still going strong. I have the base on the floor up against the kick plate. Looks like a smoke detector to be honest. Money well spent and since he can no longer fill up on carbs, I'm happy to announce he's lost 9 pounds. Happy home once again.

Muy eficiente y recomendable funciona a la perfección y cumple con su propósito al cien por ciento estoy muy contento

Oui, pleins de commentaires positifs ! Mais c'est que pour la version Américaine, les français n'ont droit qu'a la version EU.Quelle différence me direz-vous, elle est énorme.C'est à dire que le collier ne se déclenche que si on est a 20-30 cm de distance en test réel (1-2 feet annoncé), prenez la règle de trousse de vos enfants et vous verrez que c'est rien du tout comme zone. 70 € pour avoir un une zone tranquille de 25 cm de rayon, ça ne les vaut pas du tout.Alors que la version américaine va de 30 cm de rayon a 3,5 m (2-12 feet annoncé) et ce pour le même prix. C'est une différence monstre !Le choc électrique fait son effet, mais je ne recommande pas du tout pour la faible zone de protection que ça crée... De plus ça ne se déclenche que de temps en temps car les poils empêchent le courant de passer !Très déçu !

Algo que el anuncio no menciona es que no es apto para gatos muy pequeños, los electrodos del collar no tocan la piel si el animal es muy pequeño, es recomendable para gatos adultos. Funciona bien a veces, he notado que no siempre al ingresar al rango del emisor el animal no recibe la advertencia adecuadamente, desconozco a qué se beba! Si funciona para mantener al animal alejado de ciertos lugares, cosas o áreas de la casa. Para los gatos muy desastrosos viene de maravilla! Pero cabe mencionar que el precio es elevado pero aún así vale la pena hacerse de este equipo y adicionalmente adquirir más repetidores.

Efficace pour notre chat. Le prix est élevé.
