We all worry about our gun dogs and their safety. Concerns about what could happen if your dog was to escape from your yard and wander the neighborhood are normal.
Even the best-behaved dog is going to create havoc when running loose: even if it’s just digging holes or eating rotten things out of the street. Sometimes they just come home parents-to-be.
Although most people who have dogs elect to put up a typical fence in either wood or chain link what they’ve quickly discovered is (a) they are an eyesore, (b) a clever dog can get over or under the fence and (c) they actually make your home values go down. You need an alternate solution for allowing your dog to safely roam your yard without the added worries of him breaking out and getting into trouble in your neighborhood or running the risk of being injured.
Today, more and more responsible dog owners are electing to use an electric dog fence, which is designed to keep your dog safely in your yard. Some people feel that these systems are inhumane because they correct your dog’s errant behavior by jolting him with a small electrical charge. The fact of the matter is that these electric systems actually are designed to not harm your dog, instead they provide a ‘reminder’ that they are going into areas that they should not be going into.
Electronic dog fences are actually a blessing in disguise for dog owners who do not want the unsightly ‘typical’ fence since all of the wiring is actually buried in the ground (only a few inches down). This wiring actually establishes your dog’s boundaries and is controlled by a transmitter. These transmitters can be located anywhere on your property that is convenient for you. The theory is that the wire in the ground receives the signal from the transmitter and if your dog decides to jump his boundaries, he gets a small electrical jolt from a specially designed collar that contains a receiver.
The new Innotek fences have solved a lot of the technical flaws of original electronic dog fences. In the past, your dog would be able to continue through the wire boundaries after getting a small shock. However, the newer design will continue to send shocks slightly out of bounds, reminding your dog to head back, keeping him safe and sound.
Today, the Innotek systems have all new features that increase the jolt that your dog will get as he approaches the boundary but more importantly for those stubborn dogs who think they can just keep going, the shock continues for a range outside of the pre-determined boundary that you have set.
With Innotek’s newer fence system, previous models are obsolete. Older models were limited in range, making it difficult for your dog to enjoy larger spaces for running and playing. Now, even the lower end Innotek systems cover as many as five acres, and the top model can go up to 25 acres, which is great for those who have large properties.
Another challenge that was faced by many dog owners is what to do about multiple dogs, but Innotek has also addressed that concern by allowing you to purchase additional collars for use with the electric fence system.
