Owners of different kinds of pets are interested in dog containment systems and the way to use for all sorts of purposes The main components of these electronically based systems are the transmitter positioned in the middle of the house, yard or other containment area, the proximity sensors placed around this area and the collar fixed on the dog’s neck, and they are utilized to restrain the dog or other pet from crossing specific boundaries, by providing it with different kinds of aversive stimuli, like warning beeps and mild electric shocks. Your pet will receive these aversive stimuli only in the case he or she will get too close to the proximity sensors placed around the safe area you designated for its use.
These devices work on the simple basis of the conditioned reflex that will make it make the mental link between its attempts to cross by the limits of the containment area and an unpleasant sensation given by the aversive stimulus he or she receives.
Millions of owners of different kind of pets took advantage of these pet containment systems.
A part of the cases in which these devices are helpful to use are presented as follows:
If your dog crosses the limits of your property and wanders without human supervision, he or she are exposed to different mishaps, like car accidents or confrontations with other animals. The use of these electronic devices will help you save the costs and the stress involved by any of those mishaps.
This happens in two main ways.
When the pet tries something you did not allowed it, the collar will firstly emit a warning beep for both the dog and you, and you have the time to stop its action.
Of course the sound will also be heard by the dog which will be amazed and will stop, especially when knowing that ashock follows the beep.
If your dog has a short memory or is stubborn and ignores the warning sound, a mild electric shock follows and this time he stops. The dog will then be safe within the containment area.
Train your dog back into the house at the warning sound before the electric shock.
• Just a single shock is often sufficient for any dog to learn of the association between his bad behavior and the possible consequences. You can adjust the level of shock that will be delivered to your dog depending on its size, its temperament and the general circumstances surrounding the attempt to cross.
Moreover, along the training process the dog will need less and milder shocks, untill he will stop when hearing the warning sound.
Constantly decrease the intensity level of the shock, until your dog will respond to the warning beep alone.
You don’t need any more classic dog containment systems, like physical fences.
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.
And because these are portable systems, you can easily designate the safe area in a few minutes’ time. Just set up the transmitters and you are set to contain your dog within the house or within the yard sans the need to actually break down walls.
These dog containment systems make pet owners peaceful about their pets being safe when there are away from home.
