How The DogWatch System Works The boundary wire creates the perimeter for the DogWatch Hidden Fence System, and can enclose any area up to 200 acres. It is buried at least 3 - 4” beneath the surface of the yard or can lie on top of the ground (e.g.: in wooded or rocky areas). It can also be installed around gardens or swimming pools, or attached to an existing fence to prevent your dog from digging under or jumping over it.
