My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS 2.0 Dog Fence + Tracking Collar Is Activating Where It Shouldn’t
Remember to remove the collar from your dog whenever you take him out of the pet area or transition between boundaries. The collar should also be removed when your dog is inside the home.
If your collar’s Signal Status LED is slowly blinking red, indicating that it isn’t receiving a GPS signal, visit My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS 2.0 Dog Fence + Tracking Collar Does Not Have an LTE or GPS Signal.
Confirm the correct fence is assigned to your dog. For more information, visit How To Assign or Remove a Dog from a Fence on My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS 2.0 Dog Fence + Tracking System.
Confirm the boundary is a minimum of half an acre.
Revisit the boundary setup and check that the requirements below are met:
- Keep your boundaries simple! Make sure to have as few fence posts as possible. Ex: For each straight line on your boundary, keep it to 2 fence posts, the starting post, and the end post. Excessive posts may lead to misaligned safe start points.
- Both sides of the boundary must be 25 feet per story away from your house or any other large building. Ex: The boundary should be at least 50 feet from a two-story house.
- Avoid sharp corners in your layout.

Confirm your collar is fully updated. Do this by leaving your collar on the charging base overnight.
