Wireless pet containment fences were proposed by manufacturers as a solution
for dog owners who wish to contain their animals in a part of their property
without using a leash. With the help of these fences, pet owners can say goodbye
to the hassles associated with pets climbing over boundary walls and digging
holes in the yard below fences in order to escape.
A wireless pet containment fence comes with a remote control that sends radio
waves at 17,5 Kilo Hz. Other parts of the set include a collar that is worn
comforably by the dog, 50 training flags that help the dog locate the boundaries
of its designated area, and an instructions booklet. 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. Using the radio signals, the
collar can detect when the dog comes close to the fence, in which case it will
emit a warning sound. In spite of this, if the dog steps out of the boundary, a
harmless static electric shock is offered to the pet thereby distracting and
containing the dog in the fenced area.
Installing a wireless pet containment fence is quite simple. With the help of
instructions given in a booklet or DVD, owners can set everything up themselves.
Because of the great number and variety of models, dog owners are advised to
spend some time researching in order to get the most appropriate fence for their
needs.
How to Select a Wireless Pet Containment Fence
The collar that comes with the system should be comfortable to wear and able to
resist bad weather and rought treatment. The coverage area offered by a wireless
pet containment fence should match with what the pet requires. If you need
coverage for an unusually large area, you can always buy an extra transmitter.
As mentioned before, an instructional booklet or DVD explaining the operation of
the wireless pet containment fence you purchase is very much essential since
this would clarify everything including installation and training to the
management of the pet. 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.
