A remote controlled electronic animal restraining device for tethering an animal to a fixed point. A buckle attached to the leash of an animal is inserted into an opening in the device housing where it is received by a locking system. The locking system engages the buckle until the user presses a button on a wireless remote, which causes the buckle to be released from the device housing. Once the buckle is released, the animal is free to move from the fixed point.
