Selecting the Right Invisible Dog Fence
Selecting a dog fence or pet fence to install your self at your home can be very confusing.
Most of the market is Dominated by Radio Systems Corporation.
They are the makers of PetSafe, InvisibleFence, and Innotek.
While these products do well at containing a dog within a dog fence they do have their limitations.
First the country of manufacture is China.
Sometimes there is a problem with consistency of signal, the signal will expand or contract based on temperature, not all of these systems exhibit this problem, but it does exist.
In my opinion the best product on the market is made by Perimeter Technologies the makers of Pet Stop.
The Ultra Comfort Contact system is made in the US, it features four levels of stimulation with a fifth level being progressive from Low to Medium to High.
It also features a low battery light so the owner knows when the battery needs to be replaced.
The only limitation of this system is the size area it can cover,which is only three acres.
This is large enough for most residential lots.
The system can easily be installed with a spade or a lawn edger to place the wire.
The wire needs only to be 1 to 2 inches deep in the soil, just so it is not cut during lawn mowing.
A video is included which shows the owner how to train the dog to the pet fence.
Training is the most important part of having a successful dog fence and if the pet owner does not feel confident he should seek professional help on training.
