Systems and methods of defining boundary regions for animals

Systems and methods of determining a boundary area for animals, including a transmitter unit to generate and transmit a plurality of boundary signals, a receiver unit having one or more sensors to detect one or more characteristics of the boundary signals, and a user interface configured to communicate with the receiver unit, the user interface including a boundary program component to sequentially acquire boundary data corresponding to the plurality of boundary signals at a series of boundary perimeter locations, and to transmit the acquired data and instructions to the receiver unit to enable the receiver unit to determine proximity of the receiver unit relative to each perimeter location.
