Making Best Use of Electric Dog Fence Collar Part I

For beginners, an Electric Dog Fence is a special containment system which uses sound and electric warnings to prevent the dog from roaming outside the fence boundary. In this system, wires are used to place a boundary in (or around the home) and these are connected to the transmitter. This transmitter is connected wirelessly by a receiver which is attached with the collar of the dog (special device included in the electric dog fence package).

If the dog tries to go outside the fenced area, a high pitched sound is emitted to warn it and if it continues to go further, then a static shock is given to make the dog stay inside the boundary. Slowly, it learns to respect and tries to ‘avoid’ the sound and the shocks.

The collar of the Electric Dog Fence Reviews is a very important part and its proper configuration is necessary to make sure that the system is safe and useful. There are certain things which the owner can do to ensure that the collar works perfectly. The first consideration involves the battery. Any containment collar has a battery life of three to four months.

However, this time can vary if the dog is stubborn and keeps on testing the fence even after being trained.
Due to more number of sounds and shocks, the battery gets drained quickly.

If the battery fails without the knowledge of the owner, then the dog might experience a very feeble static (which can be ignored) and run outside the house. Therefore, the manufacturer should be inquired regarding how often the battery should be replaced.

The battery life of the Electric Dog Fence collar should be checked continuously to ensure that it is working fine and the intensity of the sound/shock is maintained.
