A Wireless Dog Fence would aid many of us pet owners who would like to install a fence for our backyard but are unable for one reason or another. That would let our pet to have a nice place to run and play without all of the hazards from wandering outside the yard. Installing a fence in yards is quite expensive and very difficult labor, especially for those who have a lot of ground to cover. This is where wireless dog fence technology helps out. There are quite a few different models of wireless fences, but this article will look specifically at the PetSafe Wireless Dog Fence.
The PetSafe Wireless Dog Fence goes by the model number PIF-300. This is the latest technology that PetSafe has made in the way of dog containment. This is a fantastic do-it-yourself system. For those of us who are like me and want the easiest possible installation, this is the product for you. There are no wires to bury, no trenches to dig, and especially no holes for fence posts, cement, nails, and all of the other tools that installing a traditional fence require. With this product, if you can plug it in, you can install it. The PetSafe Wireless Dog Fence is so portable, you can bring it with you anywhere you go. This is wonderful for people who own a cabin, or like to bring their dog with them when they travel.
After you plug in the PetSafe Wireless Dog Fence, all you have to do is set the range necessary for your dog’s boundary. The system comes with boundary flags to mark the edge of the boundary you set on the PIF-300. This product is the premier system on the market when it comes to wireless technology. It covers double the range of any other wireless dog fence. With only one transmitter, it will cover a surface up to 180 feet in diameter. That is plenty for most of our backyards. If you have a large area of land you want to cover, the best thing about this product is that you can add multiple transmitters that enable you to increase the area of coverage. You are able add more than two transmitters to this product. Another thing to remember when considering one of these containment systems is that the transmitters are not waterproof, so each needs to be in a safe location where it is away from the elements.
The PetSafe Wireless Dog Fence is also fantastic in the fact that it can be used with multiple dogs. You can actually use it with an infinite number of dogs provided they all use the proper receiver collar, which are also available to you. It is extremely nice to know that the transmitters and collars are available separately just in case you need to replace some of the system and not all of it.
For many of us who like to camp or be outdoors, there are also power inverters for your convenience that enable it to be plugged in to your vehicle which is extremely nice because we all know what types of trouble our pets can get in when in a new, exciting environment.
Please note that you must properly train your dog when using a wireless dog fence just like with anything else we do with them. There is a fantastic training guide and video that is included with this unit, and it is also available on You Tube. This is a great item, and uses some of the most innovative technology in the business. It is a very humane way to keep your pet close by while allowing her some freedom as well, provided the proper training techniques are used. If this is a system that interests you, I encourage you do some research and see if it is right for you and your dog.
