Dog containment systems are essential products where pet owners are concerned for many reasons that will be discussed later. These electronic products are basically composed of a radio waves transmitter placed inside the house or in the middle of the established perimeter that will trigger the collar around the dog’s neck to deliver it aversive stimuli, such as a warning beep followed by a safe, mild and painless electric shock. This happens when the dog attempts to cross the invisible boundary set up around the desired containment area.

The dog is an intelligent animal that will soon associate the sensations induced by these aversive stimuli with its approach to the boundaries the owner established, and will cease attempting to cross over the perimeter of the electronic fence.

The numerous benefits of these dog containment systems are well appreciated by millions of pet owners every day. Let’s see what are few of the pet containment systems’ benefits.

• Your dog will have better protection against road accidents, animal run-ins and other possible mishaps borne of being outside a designated safe area. These accidents and mishaps imply financial and psychological costs that you will be spared of. Your dog is secured inside the perimeter in two steps. You can firstly use the device to train the dog, commanding it to stop when it approaches the perimeter line and the collar beeps.

When you are not at home, the dog will be the one warned by the beep of the collar if to close to the perimeter line. In a few seconds after the beep, the collar will issue a mild electric shock that will stop the dog if it continued to approach the established boundaries. You dog will then not go into the road in the line of passing cars or not be engaged in fights with other animals. You must train your dog to come inside the house when the beep sounds or when the shock delivers its mild force.

• Most of the dogs are smart enough to associate their bad behaviour with the unpleasant consequences after one only shock. After a few adjustements, you will be able to set the proper intensity for the electric shocks to be delivered.

As the training of your dog progresses, you will notice that lesser amounts of electric shock are needed. For example, during the initial stages of use, you can set the shock at its maximum setting and then lower it to the minimum setting when your dog has been trained to respond to the beep alone.

• It will cost you more time and money to set up physical dog containment systems as are the fences made from wood, stone or metal. Keep in mind, too, that these physical fences require maintenance expenses including additional real property taxes, which is in contrast with wired and wireless electronic systems known colloquially as invisible fences.

Moreover, you can easily designate the safe area because the electronic dog containment are portable systems. You just need to install the transmitter and to set it to contain your dog within the house or another place.

Due to the electronic dog containment systems your dog will be less exposed to accidents and will have less opportunities to run away.
