Wireless pet containment fences were developed as a solution for dog owners who had trouble keeping their dogs contained within a certain area. Unlike other types of fences, dogs can’t jump over wireless pet containment fences or dig under them, which doesn’t result in an escape, damagaged property, or an injured dog.
A wireless pet containment fence works by using a remote transmitter that sends singal waves at 17,5 Kilo Hertz. It also includes a light-weight receiver collar worn on the dog’s neck, 50 training flags and an instructional booklet that aids in training the pet. After the transmitter is plugged to any regular house current outlet, it will emit radio signals that can be picked up by the receiver in the dog’s collar. If the pet that is wearing the receiver tries to go out of the preset boundary, a premonition in the form of a sound is given. If the dog continues to try to cross the fence, the collar will administer a harmless but annoying electrical shock that will make the dog fall back into the safe area.
Installing a wireless pet containment fence is quite simple. The DVD and the manual that comes with the fence will tell you all you need to know. For best results, dog owners should research the several advantages and disadvantages of models before making a decision.
Tips to Choosing a Wireless Pet Containment Fence
First of all, the collar with the receiver should fit the dog’s neck comfortably, yet not too loose that the dog misses the correction. The coverage area offered by a wireless pet containment fence should match with what the pet requires. For bigger areas, you might purchase additional transmitters.
The DVD and the instruction manual that come with the set not only explain how to set up the system correctly, they also actually tell you how to slowly get your dog used to the wireless fence. This is why you should never buy a product that doesn’t come with instructions.
A wireless pet containment fence can help you keep your dog in your property without the use of a leash. They come with a DVD and booklet with instructions. Reading and/or watching the instructions is essential to getting good results with your wireless pet containment fence.
