Containment SystemsPet containment systems, or invisible dog fences, are a tricky issue for a lot of pet owners - your pet instinctively wants to be free, while you want him or her to be safe! However, if you have ever found yourself driving around your neighbourhood, calling out the window for the family dog, you've probably thought about pet containment systems! There are many reasons for using pet containment systems, including health and reproductive issues, leash laws, and basic neighbourly courtesy. However, while there are many conventional pet containment systems available such as wooden, rail, or chain link fences, one of the newer and increasingly popular alternatives is an underground or Wireless Dog Fence. One of the major reasons for the popularity of wireless pet containment systems is that unlike traditional fences, cages, and chains, they offer a solution that can't be dug under, chewed through, or jumped over. Indeed, containment systems have come a long way and while the exact date of its origin is unclear, the Wireless Dog Fence industry began flourishing internationally in the early 1970s as a popular form of pet containment - originally as a way of both protecting pets and making image-concerned owners happy. As a variety of pet containment systems, Wireless Dog Fences are intended to be a correction deterrent to your pet and to this end, many of the more popular wireless pet containment systems are endorsed by national humane societies and animal organizations - such as the RSPCA, vets, vet publications, animal behaviourists, and major University Schools of Veterinary Science. |
