DogWatch 1200Fence
The perfect balance of performance & price
The 1200Fence outdoor hidden dog fence offers the safety, reliability and quality of our industry leading ProFence system, with just a few less features. Now you can get all the technology and performance you’ve come to expect from DogWatch in a more economical package.
Freedom & Safety for your Pet.
DogWatch® Hidden Fences keep your pets safe. The Hidden Fence creates a secure boundary to keep your pets safely in your yard and away from places you don’t want them, such as gardens, swimming pools and driveways. With a Hidden Fence, your pets can run, play and exercise so they stay happy and healthy. Hidden Fences are also commonly known as wireless fences, underground fences, invisible fences, and electric fences for dogs.
SafeLink®
Our patented digital SafeLink® FM technology provides the maximum protection against false activation caused by stray radio signals. FM technology is less prone to interference than the AM systems used by other brands, and that makes DogWatch the most secure hidden fence available.
SafeLink®
DogWatch has the fastest reaction time in the industry. If your dog runs at the boundary, the receiver reacts with the warning signal before he reaches the wire, not while he is traveling over it.
Reciever Status Light
The BigLeash Remote Trainer offers 15 training levels (levels of stimulation) to accommodate a wide variety of training needs and pet personalities, but not so many that picking the correct level requires an advanced degree.
Flexible Training Levels
Select the signal you need, when you need it – audible or vibration, brief or continuous.
High Impact, Waterproof
The DogWatch receiver is tested to withstand the harsh outdoor elements of rain, sleet and snow . . . as well as rigorous play!
Range Setting
You can easily adjust the width of the signal (the ‘signal range’) on your 1200Fence to meet the needs of your pet and the size of your yard. If there is a wire break, there is also a warning alarm that alerts you to check the system. This is an invaluable safety feature for underground fences.
Lightning Protection
DogWatch Hidden Fences include the very best lightning/surge protection available as a standard feature. External protection directs power surges and lightning away from your home; internal protection suppresses surges coming in through your house wiring.
Easy for you
We keep your pet safe and are safe for your pet with our exclusive SafeLink® FM technology and safety features (such as AutoMemory®, TattleTale™, and SmartFence® WebApp alerts) and settings that can be individualized for all breeds, ages, and pet personalities.
Proven Training Program
Our DogWatch team provides on-site training using a safe and effective training program that includes visual recognition of boundary flags, learning to retreat from the audible (or vibration) warning signal, and learning that there is an unpleasant sensation if they cross the boundary.
Flexible, Affordable Containment Areas
Over the river and through the woods? Backyard only . . . but not the pool and flower garden? Create a swimming area in the lake? It can be done. A hidden fence is more flexible and less expensive than a traditional fence. And your dog can’t jump over, dig under, or chew through a hidden fence!
Works for Cats (and more!)
All DogWatch products are effective for cats, too! Create an invisible boundary that keeps your cat in your yard and out of the kids’ sandbox. You can also create an indoor cat fence to keep the kitty off the kitchen counter, away from your new sofa, and out of the baby’s room. And you can use the system for cat containment and dog containment at the same time! Also works for other “pets” including pigs, goats, sheep, and more!
Longest Battery Life
The DogWatch receiver battery lasts up to two years, compared to 3-4 months for most other pet containment systems. Fewer batteries are good for your wallet and better for the environment. And, most importantly, safer for your pet!
Lifetime Equipment Warranty
The DogWatch receiver battery lasts up to one year, compared to 3-4 months for most other pet containment systems. Fewer batteries are good for your wallet and better for the environment. And, most importantly, safer for your pet!

Customer Stories
corine bunk2023-10-15The whole team is so friendly and helped the process move so quickly. I spoke to their office one day and by the next day everything was installed and we had our first training that afternoon. We loved Emily and looked forward to her training visits. It is such a relief to know my dogs are much safer now.Joyce Gibson2023-10-02Excellent professional anc thorough. We switched from the horrid experience with invisible fence without a refund snd no customer service. This company had our dogs trained within two weeks. Best customer service and product out there. I’ve Ed tried all none work like this systemRaShawn Hunter2023-09-22I initially was planning on going with a competitor but after extensive research, decided to go with DogWatch. All I can say is that I couldn’t be happier with my choice and sincerely believe I narrowly escaped disaster had I gone with the other company. The customer service is top notch. They care about their clients and it shows. The installer was professional and very conscientious, being careful to make sure he installed the wires and receiver to be hidden and neat. I also wanted doggie doors installed and they don’t install them but they went out of their way to make sure I was completely satisfied and actually made a call and found someone to install them for me! And Emily is truly a gem. My dog has tons of anxiety due to a very negative prior experience with a training device so he’s required more than 3 sessions. Emily comes faithfully and encourages me each week as he makes progress. I can tell it’s not a burden for her. She’s so knowledgeable and comes up with creative ideas to help him overcome his obstacles. I truly can’t say enough good things about this company! Finally, the DogWalker collar has changed my and my dog’s life! Seriously. My dog is very aggressive around other dogs and walking him was a nightmare and pretty much impossible. When neighbors saw me coming, they would turn around and walk in the opposite direction. Emily recommended the DogWalker and Max was a different dog after one use. All I can say is that it was a mini miracle and I no longer have to walk him after hours to avoid my neighbors. Thank you DogWatch! You guys are AMAZING!!!Marsha2023-09-15After having invisible fence, I needed to replace it and went with Dogwatch and am so glad I did. From the installation to the training Toby received, I’d recommend them before invisible fence any daydipti moll2023-09-03I recently had the pleasure of working with Emily, a trainer from DogWatch, and I must say, she is absolutely amazing! Her expertise and dedication to helping me train our dogs was awe-inspiring. Emily's knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques was evident from the moment we started working together. She took the time to understand our dogs’ unique needs and tailored our training sessions accordingly. Her patience and gentle approach made the training process enjoyable for both me and my furry friends. Not only did Emily provide excellent training sessions, but she also went above and beyond to ensure I had all the information and resources I needed to continue the training at home. She was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had, and her guidance was invaluable. In addition to Emily's exceptional training skills, I must also commend DogWatch for its hidden dog fence system. The fence has been a game-changer for me and our dogs. It provides a safe and secure boundary for my pets without the need for physical barriers or constant supervision. The installation process was smooth, and the system has been incredibly reliable. Overall, I cannot recommend Emily and DogWatch enough. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to the well-being of dogs are truly commendable. If you're looking for a top-notch trainer and a reliable hidden dog fence provider, look no further than Emily and DogWatch. They are simply the best!Marty Hightower2023-08-14Excellent service and friendly people.Susan Adams2023-07-31The installer was excellent and I cannot say enough good about Emily the trainer!
