The Basics Of Wireless And Invisible Pet Fence Systems

The basic elements of hidden dog fencing systems whether they are electric or wireless, are much the same. They all include a receiver training collar that your canine wears, and a transmitter which transmits a signal out to the receiver. In some way or another, you are able to establish the range of the system. With the electronic products, wire is buried surrounding the perimeter of the area to be contained. A wireless type is much less complicated. Simply specify the range using the transmitter.

This establishes a boundary for your furry companion in which the collar provides a static correction any time the boundary is neared or crossed. The invisible dog fence transmitter will first transmit an audio sound which your puppy is able to hear letting your canine know that he has gone past the boundary. If this is ignored then the sound is followed by the static correction, generally referred to as the "shock." Most of these systems do have a security feature that stops the static correction after a short period of time, should your pet gets stuck on the wrong side of the boundary.

The fundamental functionality of most pet containment systems is the same. After the boundary has been set, you need to employ correct methods of training to keep your dog secured within the designated area. All of the top quality products include first-class training instructions, and several even come with a training DVD. Some of the benefits of each are listed here:

A wireless pet fence is an excellent transportable method to contain your pet. They are superb to take along with you wherever you decide to go. They are also excellent for home use. They actually cover a good size area with a single transmitter alone, but more transmitters are necessary to cover bigger areas.

The electric pet containment system uses hidden wire buried around the perimeter of the area to be protected. They are fantastic for home use, and with the purchase of extra wire, most of them are able to contain up to twenty five acres sometimes more on one transmitter alone. Most come completely ready to cover 1/3 to 1/2 acre. They are typically more affordable than the wireless models, but your particular needs can help you determine which is best for you and your canine.

With an invisible pet fence proper training is a vital component to the safe and effective use of these kinds of systems. I am a big promoter of employing proper training techniques for your pet, and highly recommend you comprehend the instruction required before deciding on one of these kinds of systems.
