Wireless fence systems are steadily gaining popularity as more people are looking for alternatives to the traditional physical fences that have been used in the past. The reasons for not liking these physical barriers vary. It could be because they don’t want to ruin their landscaping or perhaps they’re afraid that their pets may have unfortunate accidents while trying to escape from these fences. With a PetSafe wireless containment fence, you can fix both problems, and more. Unlike your wooden or metal barriers, a Petsafe underground fence stays out of sight but does its job more effectively than any physical fence can. With wireless fences, you’re not only keeping your pets inside your property, you are also teaching them what areas they are able to go to safely even if there are no objects blocking or obstructing them.
There are three vital components in a wireless pet containment system: the boundary wire, indoor transmitter, and waterproof collar to be worn by the pets. These three work hand in hand to be able to monitor your pet’s movement on the yard and to deliver correction when necessary (i.e they are getting too close or have crossed the boundary). Advances in technology have helped in more effective products in the market; there is now even a PetSafe fence for cats. While cats are normally not as hard to keep in check as our lively canine friends, they too will need to learn the set boundaries to avoid any unpleasant road accidents. This system works in a similar way as other PetSafe models with the addition of four correction levels as well as tone setting. Tone and level 1 are advised for easy to train cats; the more independent ones should have the level 2 settings for faster results.
