We all worry about our hunting 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 most well-behaved dog has the ability to create problems in your area, like hurting of killing other pets and animals, biting people, ruining other yards, and consuming trash and hazardous waste — or worse yet, coming home pregnant!
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.
More and more responsible dog owners are turning to electric dog fences to fill this need. These are designed to keep your dog safely in your yard without the eye-sore of a fence, the possibility of escape, and so forth. While some (wrongly) think that these electronic fences are inhumane, the facts are that these systems are designed NOT to hurt your dog. They provide a reminder, but not a painful one.
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.
Some of the original electric dog fences failed easily since your dog could run right through the boundary, suffer a slight shock and keep going since the shock was momentary. Innotek however, has designed a system that will contain your dog safely and effectively even slightly outside the boundary.
Today’s Innotek systems have all new features that increase the “shock” as your dog continues to test the boundary in addition to continuing them for a range after the dog has left the boundaries to roam. For most dogs, this is more than enough.
Innotek has also come up with models that make earlier systems obsolete! One of the most significant challenges of these fences was that they really did not have a large enough range to allow your dog to run and play in a large area. Today, the lower end systems that Innotek makes cover up to five acres and the top of the line system the Innotek 2100D covers up to twenty five acres of land making it ideal for those who have sprawling acres.
For owners of more than one dog, Innotek provides an answer. You can purchase more than one collar to be used with your electric fence system.
