Today, we are learning more and more about training bird dogs using the relatively new technology called electronic dog training collars. These collars have changed the way that working dogs are trained, especially hunting dogs.

One of the greatest values these collars give to the trainer is the increase of interaction between the trainer and the dog. They allow for remote training, without a traditional leash, which greatly increases the options a trainer has in training a working or hunting dog. Let’s look at why these collars are so effective.

Electronic training systems consist of two parts: transmitters and receivers. The transmitter is usually in the hand-held unit and is controlled by the trainer while the receiver is usually worn in the dog’s collar. Correcting a dog–at home, in the field hunting, or during a show—is done by sending a signal from the trainer’s transmitter that sends a light volt of static shock to the dog through the collar. These corrections are light and do not harm the dog, but they do distract the dog, which corrects bad behavior. This quickly increases the training pace.

If you’re looking for an effective dog training collar, you’ll need one that is not only safe, but reliable. Innotek is a known name when it comes to electronic dog training collars. Innotek systems will serve your needs; you can get a backyard system for your property which will allow you to train two or more dogs, or you can opt for a simpler one for training at home.

In addition to the high quality that is guaranteed by the use of top of the line components, Innotek products offer long-term durability. Innotek’s Ultra Smart Training collars also offer a variety of options including 15 levels of stimulation, allow for multiple dogs to be trained and options to use sound as well as electronic reminders for your dog.

Innotek UltraSmart training collars provide the best value through the IUT 300 series. Great for trainers who have want to train two dogs at a time, you can experience great results in field or show training where your dogs will need to be a bit of a distance from where you stand. Designed to work up to 300 yards away, these collars work with either sound or electronic stimulation.

The IUT300 offers a number of features that are not available in any other collar including self diagnosis, electronic fit testing, battery strength display, a built in receiver and lithium ion technology that is not found in any other collar. In addition, the nine stimulation levels make this collar one of the most versatile for those owners who want the control of both electronic and sound correction.

Extra-long probes for long-haired dogs are also available as well as lanyards, test lights, and instructional DVDs. Innotek is committed to ensuring that you and your dog get the most from their products when training.

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.

Summary

The Innotek electric dog fence system offers:
1. A humane way of training your dog to stay inside your yard
2. Peace of mind
3. Elimination of unsightly fencing
4. Cost effectiveness

You can trust Innotek to keep your dog safe and within his bounds while allowing him to play in a yard of any size, and the best part is, your dog can stay out of trouble in your neighborhod!
