Electric Dog Fences
By Ross Bainbridge
Electric dog fences are a new option to keep your pets safe. Of all
dog-fencing systems, the most flexible is the electric dog fence. Electric
dog fences are popular among pet owners and dog trainers. A wide selection
is available including the Ultra Deluxe with a comfort fit receiver,
The installation of electric dog fences is very simple. The components
required include insulators, a pet-collar with a receiver, charger, heavy
wire and fence wire. The boundary wire is buried approximately 1-2 inches
below the surface. Ifs the pet comes too close to the boundary, the
boundary wire sends out a signal. The pet-collar worn by the dog produces
a beep sound, and the dog receives a mild electric shock.
Most of the authorized online dealers of dog fences offer free shipping
services to their customers. When choosing a dog fence, it is good to
check whether the retailer offers a money-back guarantee and warranty.
Electric dog fences need routine maintenance, so pet owners who have
electric dog fences must check it regularly in order to avoid accidents.
Electric dog fences must be "broken in" for the dog. Even the the fence
does provide an electric shock, telling the dog not to go there, it can
still run across the boundary if not trained properly. Once your fence is
installed and your dog is wearing the receiver, take it on a leash and
slowly show it the boundaries. The extra time and care spent will ensure
your dog never wanders too far.
