How Wagz keeps your pup contained.
Create geofences in seconds and use no-shock corrections.
Geofences vs. Traditional Solutions
Unlike a physical barrier or buried wire system, a geofence uses GPS data to allow you to create virtual boundaries—at your home or anywhere you go. Simply drop pins onto a satellite image of your location using the Wagz App and a virtual fence is created. Your Freedom Smart Dog Collar will recognize these boundaries and automatically deliver no-shock corrections and alerts if your pet strays outside them. That’s right… a containment system that works on any terrain and doesn't require you to dig up your yard—or dig into your wallet for expensive fences!
-
Create CUSTOMIZABLE boundarIES in your yard or anywhere you travel. -
SET UP KEEP OUT ZONES to prevent your pup from entering pools, gardens and other ‘off-limits’ areas. -
Use the Wagz app to manage multiple geofences and Keep Out Zones—for multiple dogs.

Shock-Free Corrections
How Wagz uses 3 different stimuli to get your pup’s attention.
With proper training, our system has been proven to be an extremely effective means of containment. How does it work? You simply create a wireless fence using the Wagz App and the collar automatically delivers humane corrections when your dog goes over her boundary. There are three different types of stimuli to alert your pup of boundaries—and none involve painful shocking! Dogs may respond differently to each correction type. Feel free to try them individually or in combination to determine what is most effective for your pup.
Ultrasonic
Similar to a traditional dog whistle, this emits sound waves at a frequency above the upper limit of human hearing. It does not force your dog to do anything, but gets her attention quickly!
Audible tones
Produces a brief beeping sound that can be heard by both dogs and pet parents.
Vibration
Creates a buzzing sensation as another way to get your pup's attention when she reaches a boundary. Think of this like your cell phone ringer when it's on silent mode.
What to expect with battery life.
The Wagz system uses removable, rechargeable batteries to power the Freedom Smart Dog Collar. And because it is built to constantly receive and translate important data about your pup—it uses more power than basic “smart collars”. But no worries! We include a second battery so you can always have one on the charger. The Wagz App also allows you to customize features to maximize battery life. Wagz users can also get nearly 3X more battery life with our Boost Battery.
Mostly Indoor Pups
For pups that go outside when nature calls but spend a majority of time within reach of your phone’s Bluetooth or home Wi-Fi.
Medium Activity Pups
For pups that are usually at home and spend chunks of time outside. These pups spend 1-2 hours outside daily and go on occasional walks.
Active Outdoor Pups
For pups that spend long periods of time away from your phone’s Bluetooth or home Wi-Fi, and are often away from home.
*Estimates assume a fully charged standard battery, included with the Freedom Smart Dog Collar. Varies depending on level of activity and network connection.
How Wagz keeps you connected.
The Freedom Smart Dog Collar uses a variety of technologies connected through our Kognition™ platform to ensure the collar is constantly communicating to your phone via the Wagz App. Our versatile system ensures the collar works whether your pup is next to you on the couch or joining you for an outdoor adventure.
The Wagz App
YOUR HUB FOR CONNECTINGWITH YOUR PUP. Our patented Kognition™ platform receives data and puts location and health information at your fingertips via the Wagz App. It’s your central hub for creating virtual fences, knowing your pup’s location and monitoring his overall health and happiness.
GPS Location
Satellites constantly communicateyour pup’s location. Wagz can detect five different types of GPS satellites to track your dog's location. Be aware that GPS signal strength can be impacted by weather, buildings, trees, and other obstructions.
Bluetooth
A DIRECT CONNECTION BETWEENYOUR COLLAR AND PHONE. When your phone's Bluetooth is on and near your Freedom Collar, they will automatically connect to one another using Bluetooth. This direct connection allows them to communicate more frequently, while also preserving your collar's battery life. Your phone will need to have Bluetooth enabled and the Wagz App open for the collar to connect to it.
Wi-Fi Network
USING YOUR HOME NETWORK TO DELIVER INFORMATION. Wagz connects to your home’s Wi-Fi network in instances in which your phone is too far away from your pup’s collar to use Bluetooth. This connection isn’t as fast as Bluetooth but delivers the data much quicker and with less battery draw than cellular.
Cellular Service
KEEPS YOU CONNECTED WHEN YOUR PUP IS EXPLORING. It's important to be able to track your pet's location when he is outside of Wi-Fi range. In this situation, your Wagz subscription enables the use of cellular for communication between your dog's collar and you. Cellular connectivity delivers the most range but also uses more battery power. The Freedom Collar may have trouble communicating or tracking GPS locations in areas with spotty cellular coverage. Be aware that strength of cellular service can be impacted by weather, buildings, trees and obstructions.
