Do you want to keep your dog in your yard without a fence? Is your dog an escape artist? Do you take your dog with you on hunting or camping trips? Would you like to own an underground dog fence, but don't have time to spend on installation? Do you have certain areas in your home which you would like to be off limits to your dog? A wireless dog fence might be a good option for you if you answer positively to any of these questions.

Wireless dog fence is a new and popular product in today's electronic world. If your bank account is a concern then a wireless dog fence is a good option saving lots of money spent on a physical fence that can be dug under. Do you want your dog to be safely contained but to be able to exercise too? This is the thing for you! A wireless dog fence is safe for your dog, doesn't put you into danger of bankruptcy, and doesn't take but a few minutes to install. It is much cheaper than building a traditional fence, and does not obstruct your view or give your yard an unsightly appearance like a fence can. Some brands can be used inside or outside giving you flexibility to control their boundaries inside too! Unlike other fences, wireless dog fences are portable. This makes them wonderful for use while traveling, and are especially useful and popular for hunting and camping trips. If physical fencing doesn't keep your dog in, adding a static correction will keep them from even challenging the physical fence. With training, your dog will learn that the fence boundary itself is to be respected because the wireless dog fence can be set up within it.

A wireless dog fence does have a few priorities. The most important is that you need to get your fence from a good company. The best ones are Petsafe, Innotek, and Perimeter. Make sure that the system you choose is suitable for the weight of your particular dog. Another transmitter may be better than one if you need a larger area. A wireless dog fence may not be the right choice for you if your yard is sloped. And you should definitely choose a model that has adjustable correction levels, so that you can personalize the training program for your particular dog.

Once you have purchased and have your wireless dog fence in hand, it should only take a few minutes to install using the instruction manual which will be included. You will place the transmitter either within your home, or possibly in your garage. The transmitter does need to be kept out of the rain. After putting the collar on your dog, the most important part is training your dog so they quickly learn what is expected of them.

Training your dog to respect the boundaries of your new wireless dog fence usually takes a few weeks, but the time period greatly depends on each individual dog. Persistence and consistency in training will pay off. Watch your dog closely for the first few times you use the fence. Flags would be a good idea to show your pup where he's supposed to be. Keep him on a leash at first, and set the correction level on his collar to the minimal level. Then follow him on the leash, allowing him to explore until he reaches the boundary and receives a mild shock. This shock is very humane and is not designed to harm your dog, but just to get his attention. It is similar to the shock you receive from the carpet when you rub your feet on it. Once your dog receives the correction, pull him back from the boundary and praise him. Give treats if you want to make your training better. Hopefully your dog will be understanding of the boundary after just a few times, but of course some dogs are more stubborn than others. He will eventually learn, however, and then you will be able to remove the leash. Keep an eye on him until you know that he will stay in the fence. The method for training a dog to an indoor wireless dog fence is very similar.

A wireless dog fence is an exciting new product in today's modern society, and is worth considering by dog owners as an affordable and effective option. While there is no perfect solution to keep our dogs contained and safe, inventions nowadays such as the wireless dog fence are getting much closer!
