People who buy pets for the first time are often surprised when they discover
that they have to find a way to restrict access of said pets to certain parts of
their houses. However, after the surprise has passed, pet owners find that
restraining their pets to a certain are is not only affordable, but also quite
practical. Constructing a traditional chain or wooden fence wouldn't only prove
to be a pricey option but would also tarnish the beauty of the yard's landscape.
One good option available is an underground dog fence. These fences help in
establishing an invisible safe-zone for the pet to wander around.
How an underground dog fence Functions
An underground dog fence set includes a transmitter, a recever device, boundary
wires and training flags. You can mark where you want the boundaries to be with
the training flags and then test the system before putting it in operation. The
receiver collar worn on the dog's neck prevents him from crossing the boundary
set by the owner. A distracting sound admonishes the pet when they enter the
outer perimeter of the safe zone. If the dog still contines and tries to cross
the barrier, then a small harmless electric pulse is delievered through the
collar.
Sucessful results are reached when the owners take time to train their dogs to
recognize the signals emmited by the underground dog fence. Every underground
dog fence comes with a manual and a DVD that will explain the owner how to best
use the device and get the dog used to it. Do not skip the training offered by
the video, as it's crucial in understanding how to make the dog learn the limits
to which it can go.
These systems are more affordable than what most people think, and they are
quite easy to install too. Advanced underground dog fences with progressive
correction stimulus, flexible coverage area and remote training mechanisms with
extra collars are an awesome way to contain multiple pets.
Underground dog fences are a great option if used properly and dogs are trained.
There is one thing to consider, while dogs won't run after cars, people, or
other dogs anymore, other dogs or people can get to them, so take that into
account before you invest.
An underground dog fence is a great way to keep your dog from running away. It also has the advantage that it doesn't obstruct the view from the house. It's very easy and fast to install and operate a underground dog fence, just watch the video that comes with it.
