![]() ![]() They’ll slowly start to understand - especially when they do get too close and feel the vibration and sound. During the training sessions, you can reprimand your dog every time they get too close to the fence. Why not try using some flags to aid the training along? These are often included in electric dog fence kits, providing a useful visual aid to help your dog understand the new fence and rules. If you want to get the most out of your invisible electric dog fence, it’s best to devote a little time to train your dog as soon as the new system is installed. You can add as many collars to this as you want. This all depends on how you lay the wire! Most electric dog fences come pre-supplied with 150m of wire and, of course, the dog collar. This concept is a smart way to not only keep your dogs in your yard, but to also keep them out of your flower beds, and more. Your dog is very clever, and it won’t take them long to start putting two and two together. When he or she moves away, the noise and vibration will be automatically stopped. ![]() It will vibrate at the same time, and will continue to do so for as long as your dog remains in that area. Should your pet move too close to the wire, AKA, your “invisible boundary,” the dog’s collar will emit a beep sound for your dog to hear. The wire emits a constant radio signal which is received by the collar. If you’re going underground, you don’t have to dig too deep. This can be installed above or below the ground depending on your preferences. You can then place your wire around the yard you want to keep the dog in. They normally work with a collar which you can easily place on your furry friend’s neck. Often referred to as “invisible fences,” electric dog fences are normally “DIY” and easy enough for anyone to install. If, after reading and understanding the risks for your dog, you still decide to go ahead with an invisible fencing system, I can only wish that your dog IS one of the “lucky ones”, and that you will accept any changes to your dog’s behaviour and are willing to pay the expensive veterinary bills that may be required when your dog runs through his invisible fence.S your dog a “flight risk?” An electric dog fence is a safe and effective way to prevent your dog from running too far away. Veterinarians see too many dogs wearing shock collars in the ER. 1.2 million dogs are hit by cars every year.In some cases, dogs have become frightened of going into the yard all together. After all, the dog has been made to learn that going over the boundary was a painful experience, and it’s hard for them to understand that when the collar is not on, they can go through. Many people still like to take their dogs for drives and walks, but find that after beginning to use the fence system, their dog becomes hesitant to leave the yard, even on a leash. ![]() Stray dogs and wildlife can still come on to your property and hurt your dog. Even if it -does- work to keep your dog in the yard (well, at least, some of the time…), it does NOT work to keep others OUT of your yard. ![]() Invisible fences can’t protect your dog from the environment.Still think spending $400 on a DIY invisible underground invisible fence, and $900 on a trainer to shock your dog enough to learn the boundary is better than a REAL physical Pet Playgrounds dog fence? ![]()
