Invisible Dog Fence: A Safe Way To Fence Your Dog

 


Keeping a dog in a fence invisible to the area can be the solution to your escaping dog problems. Dog fences have holes and other escape routes that a crafty dog can sniff out before the owners can find them.

Dogs escape and wandering dogs can be a common issue with them kept in a city environment. The problem can get worse if you do not act quickly, and owners are responsible for their pets at all times. The good news is, a solution may be easier than you think. Buried fencing for dogs have created dog proof fences even without the need for a physical fence.

Such a fence is made up of two components, an invisible boundary or "Dog fence" created by a radio wire, and a collar worn by the dog. When it wanders into the fence radio signal, the collar (which is battery powered) will administer some form of correction, usually a beeping noise in the warning zone followed by a brief and mild static stimulation.

The advantages of this type of fences are many. If you have an existing physical fence, this fence can make it dog proof to stop a dog escaping. You may have internal areas within your yard that you would like to make 'pet proof'. It can protect an internal area by creating the radio signal around it. Whether it be pool areas, garden beds, or flowerbeds, it is easy to install additional invisible boundaries around these areas using the radio wire. The dog can walk around the garden but can't get in.

This fencing for pets is also a boon to those who live outside the city, such as farms or rural properties. Not only can the fence be used for keeping your pet from running away, but it can also keep them away from livestock, gardens, or other areas.

Whether you live inside or outside the city, this buried fencing for dogs is a humane way of keeping your dog in its designated area without resorting to tethering it. Tethering a pet is not recognized as an effective method of containing. If you own a dog for the purpose of increasing the security of your property, then having it run freely around the property perimeter is certainly an advantage to having it tethered or caged.

Remember that this fencing is not a cure-all and selecting the right system and carrying out the training is essential. Not all pet fences are the same. A physical boundary my still be recommended for some escaping dogs. Each dog is different and sometimes it may become more determined if the animal is in a high state of excitement.

Used correctly, a buried fence for dogs is an excellent training tool and safety measure for any dog owner, and well worth considering. Though the price is a bit more than a length of rope or chain, it is a far more humane alternative that will make sure your pet learns to stay safely inside your yard while still granting them a lot more freedom.
