An electronic fence might be the answer to keeping your dog safe and sound in its own yard. Depending on how much space you have and how you decide to set up your boundaries, you could still allow your pet plenty of room to roam and explore. WHAT IS ELECTRONIC PET FENCING? An electronic fence typically consists of boundary wire, a transmitter and a receiver. The receiver is attached to your pet’s collar while the boundary wire is buried around the perimeter of your property. The transmitter sends a radio signal along the wire, which is picked up by your pet’s collar and emits a warning sound when the boundary is approached. Multiple pets can usually be placed on the same system, but each pet needs its own programmed collar to work. TRAIN YOUR PET Many fencing companies offer tips for training - which can take two to three weeks to complete - as part if their installation package. Depending on the system you settle on, the correction your pet will feel when he gets too close to the boundary is generally comparable to a carpet-caused household shock. There are different variances, so be sure to talk over your options with your pet fencing professionals to make sure you are comfortable with the system and its warnings. SYSTEM MAINTENANCE In order for the system to run properly, you will need to check it regularly. Inspect the boundary wire to make sure it is still intact and has a working power supply. Also, test the battery in your dog’s collar to make sure it is functioning properly. Many fencing models include warning lights or sounds to let you know if a battery is running low in any of the parts. Again, consult your electronic pet fencing expert on any system-related questions. PROS TO KNOW Electronic Pet Fencing T raffic, wild animals and stray dogs.
