If you are a dog lover or owner, you have surely heard some story about a runner dog. What’s a runner? Usually a dog is called a runner if he or she is so eager to roam about everywhere but in its confined area, that no fence is able to stop it from escaping. Most of these dogs wouldn’t hurt a fly on the wall and are just out and about having fun without a care in the world until a driver doesn’t see the dog until it is too late or a non-dog person decides to take matters into their own hands. We all want our dogs to have as much freedom as they possibly can, but don’t let your energetic canine companion become prey to the dangers of the outside world. Today we have the possibility of keeping our dogs protected in the places we design for their use, while they have the illusion of complete freedom of activity. And this is very simple when you are using the electronic device that became well known as the invisible dog fence
These fences don’t need much effort or time to be installed, we just need to place a set of sensors around the area we want to safely confine our dog in, and to attach a special collar around the neck of the dog. When your dog gets too close of one of these sensors, it will trigger the collar to beep a warning sound. If your pup doesn’t listen, the collar gives him or her a little shock that will tell your dog to get back into his or her designated fenced in area. Your dog will learn very quickly not to get too close; just a couple of shocks and he will stay well within his designated area.
The only controversional issue related to these fences is that if they should be considered humane treatment for the dogs or not. The invisible dog fence was invented in 1971, and since then it has been improved drastically. You can compare the intensity of the electric shock the dog receives to that of the static shocks we all experienced. It doesn’t harm the dog at all; it simply startles your pet. You will find a shock intensity setting button on the collar to adapt it for your dog, and you can also test the collar on yourself to know exactly what will happen to your dog. It is certainly more humane than the suffering your dog would experience if he is hit by a vehicle or wounded by a neighbour’s gun.
These invisible fences got a lot of benefits to the dogs and their owners. The safety of the dog is worth the cost of this fence, that is far less than the cost of a traditional one. Moreover, you will be able to enjoy your happy dog playing and roaming around as free in a wide open space. You’ll do a favor to your dog buying for him an invisible fence. You won’t regret it.
We just need to use an invisible dog fence. Dogs learn to stop at the warning beep after two or three shocks. The invisible dog fence has been improved since his first apparition in 1971.
