Dog containment systems are essential products where pet owners are concerned for many reasons that will be discussed later. The contained dog carries around its neck a collar from wich aversive stimuli, such as a warning beep followed by a safe, mild and painless electric shock are provided to it, and the collar device is triggered by a radio waves transmitter placed inside the house or in the middle of the established perimeter. This happens when the dog attempts to cross the invisible boundary set up around the desired containment area.
The dog is an intelligent animal that will soon associate the sensations induced by these aversive stimuli with its approach to the boundaries the owner established, and will cease attempting to cross over the perimeter of the electronic fence.
Millions of pet owners have enjoyed and continue to enjoy the benefits of these dog containment systems. Let’s see what are few of the pet containment systems’ benefits.
• Outside the designated area your dog is exposed to different types of accidents and possible mishaps. These accidents and mishaps imply financial and psychological costs that you will be spared of. The electronic device acts in two diffent ways to keep the dog inside the secured area. You can firstly use the device to train the dog, commanding it to stop when it approaches the perimeter line and the collar beeps.
Second, your dog will also be alerted by beep to stop in his tracks. In the case the dog ignores the beep and continues its approach to the perimeter limits, it will receive an electric shock of small intensity that will stop it. You dog will then not go into the road in the line of passing cars or not be engaged in fights with other animals. The dog will eventually head towards the house after receiving some of these mild but unpleasant electric shocks.
• Just a single shock is often sufficient for any dog to learn of the association between his bad behavior and the possible consequences. After a few adjustements, you will be able to set the proper intensity for the electric shocks to be delivered.
Such adjustability is necessary since your dog will require lesser amounts of electric shock as his training progresses. For example, during the initial stages of use, you can set the shock at its maximum setting and then lower it to the minimum setting when your dog has been trained to respond to the beep alone.
• The set up of physical dog containment systems like fences made from wood, stone and metal is more expensive. These physical fences also require maintenance expenses and additional real property taxes.
Moreover, you can easily designate the safe area because the electronic dog containment are portable systems. Just install and set up the transmitter in the middle of the place you want to contain the dog.
These dog containment systems allow pet owners to have peace of mind that their dogs have lesser risks to be exposed to accidents as well as lesser opportunities to run away, do damage on the neighbors’ property and get into other mischief outside of the house and certain areas of the yard
The numerous benefits of these dog containment systems are well appreciated by millions. You can easily move them and create different safe areas. Due to the electronic dog containment systems your dog will be less exposed to accidents.
