dog containment systems are products of great help for all those dog owners who care about the safety and happiness of their pets. Basically, these are electronic systems that provide for aversive stimuli in the form of a loud beep followed by a safe, mild and painless electric shock delivered from the transmitter placed inside the house to the collar around the dog’s neck. This system starts on the moment the dog approaches the invisible boundary set up around the designated containment area.

These aversive stimuli give the dog unpleasant sensations and it will soon discover that it can avoid these disagreeable feelings by simply stopping at a certain point when it hears the warning sound.

Until today, millions of dog owners have bought pet containment systems in order to enjoy their advantages. These benefits include the following:.

• When your dog is free outside the containment area, diverse misfortunes can happen, like car accidents or animal quarrels, but inside it is safe. You will then be able to save on the psychological and financial costs of such accidents. The dog is protected in two ways. Firstly, the loud beep issued by the collar will alert you and you’ll have enough time to prevent the dog from escaping.

Secondly, the beep startles the dog and determines it to stop its activity. If he still persists, then the electric shock will be delivered that will stop him in his tracks. You dog will then not go into the road in the line of passing cars or not be engaged in fights with other animals. Train your dog to come in house when it hears the warning beep.

• Just a single shock is often sufficient for any dog to learn of the association between his bad behavior and the possible consequences. You should take into account various factors when you adjust the level of the electric shock, like the size and temperament of the dog.

While the training progresses, your dog will need lesser intensity of the electric shocks. After a few weeks your dog will get used to stop when it hears the sound of warning, and then you can set the minimum level of intensity for the electric shocks to be delivered just in case.

• Pet owners need not spend large amounts of time, effort and money to set up physical dog containment systems like fences made from wood, stone and metal. These physical fences require maintenance expenses and real property taxes that you will also save.

You don’t need another system for another safe containment place, just move the transmitter on the center of the new containment area and install the sensors on its borders. After you have delimited the area where you want your dog to be contained, by placing the proximity sensors in some points of its borders, all you need to do is to set ON the transmitter of the dog containment system.

The dog containment systems reduce the risks your dog is exposed to, and also its possibilities to run away or produce damages to neighbors or in your own house.
