If you have a large dog that needs space to roam but aren’t interested in digging post holes or installing bulky fencing, a GPS-based boundary system might be the perfect solution for you. One premium system is gaining attention for its ease of setting boundaries without the need for wires.
Whether you live on a large property, are heading out for the weekend, or simply want peace of mind while your dog explores safely, this high-tech option offers dog owners flexibility, portability, and reliable containment without the hassle.
The SpotOn GPS Dog Fence is a completely wireless containment system designed for medium and large-breed dogs. Using a GPS-powered collar and an app, you can create up to 20 custom fences without installing anything physical. It’s ideal for properties that span up to 100 acres, and includes real-time tracking, escape alerts, and a portable setup that goes wherever you go.
This collar doesn’t rely on WiFi or buried wires, and it uses tones, vibrations, and optional static feedback to guide your dog back within the boundary. The system also includes training tips and progress tracking through the app, helping you set clear expectations with your pup.
Pet parents are calling it a game-changer. One reviewer wrote, “I was never a big fan of electric fences and even more skeptical of GPS versions… but SpotOn is superior in every category. My dog is 100% loving his new backyard and freedom. The answer is yes—it’s worth it.” Another shared, “We live on 15 acres, and our Yellow Lab stays within his generous boundary. Thank you SpotOn!”
Others praise how reliable the system is across different settings. “Even on heavily wooded mountain land, it’s worked flawlessly,” one user wrote. “We trained our dog once and she hasn’t left the boundary since.” And another added, “We tried a different brand that didn’t work remotely—SpotOn worked great even in the woods. Couldn’t be happier.”
While this system is definitely an investment, it’s one that pet parents say brings peace of mind, especially for adventurous large breeds or households with no physical fence.
