Most of the dog owners who are concerned about the safety of their dogs use dog containment systems to fence their yards where the dogs are allowed to stay. Basically, these are electronic systems that provide for aversive stimuli in the form of a loud beep followed by a safe, mild and painless electric shock delivered from the transmitter placed inside the house to the collar around the dog’s neck. The aversive stimuli are delivered to the dog only in the case it approaches too much of the proximity sensors that border the containment area considered safe by the dog owner.

The aversive stimuli make the dog feeling uncomfortable while it attempts to cross the invisible boundary and it will learn very fast to avoid these unpleasant sensations by simply stopping at the warning beep.

Until today, millions of dog owners have bought pet containment systems in order to enjoy their advantages. These benefits include the following:.

• Your dog will have better protection against road accidents, animal run-ins and other possible mishaps borne of being outside a designated safe area. You will save this way the time, trouble and money dealing with these accidents involve. This is possible for two reasons. Firstly, the loud beep issued by the collar will alert you and you’ll have enough time to prevent the dog from escaping.

Secondly, the beep startles the dog and determines it to stop its activity. If it continues, the electric shock follows and it will surely dislike the feeling and stop. You dog will then not go into the road in the line of passing cars or not be engaged in fights with other animals. Train your dog to come in house when it hears the warning beep.

• The feeling induced by the electric shock is unpleasant enough that the dog associates it with its bad behavior. Adjust the intensity of the electric shock to be issued by the collar in accordance with the size and type of behavior of your dog.

Along the training, your dog will require fewer electric shocks and of lesser intensity. After a few weeks your dog will get used to stop when it hears the sound of warning, and then you can set the minimum level of intensity for the electric shocks to be delivered just in case.

• Pet owners need not spend large amounts of time, effort and money to set up physical dog containment systems like fences made from wood, stone and 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.

You don’t need another system for another safe containment place, just move the transmitter on the center of the new containment area and install the sensors on its borders. After you have delimited the area where you want your dog to be contained, by placing the proximity sensors in some points of its borders, all you need to do is to set ON the transmitter of the dog containment system.

Dogs are less exposed to various risks and have less possibilities of producing damages to people, animals or properties if their owners use dog containment systems.
