Keeping Your Dog In Your Yard: A Comparison Of Dog Fences

The Relationship Cure: A 5 Step Guide to Strengthening Your Marriage, Family, and Friendships

For dog owners, keeping their dog inside the yard is a high priority. After all, you do not want complaints from neighbors, saying that your dog was digging up their garden; what's more, you do not want to be concerned all the time for your dog's wellbeing, which can be the case if you do not know whether your dog is in your yard or not. While a fence is, of course, one of the methods you can use to ensure that your dog remains in your yard, another method is the dog fence. The dog fence is great for those who prefer to have an open feeling to their backyard, without a fence closing them in. To "build" a dog fence, wire is buried around the perimeter of the yard, or around the perimeter of the area inside of which you hope to keep your dog. The dog is then fitted with a collar, and if the dog gets too close to the boundaries of the "fence," the collar begins a high-pitched beep for the dog to hear. This beeping intensifies as the dog gets closer and closer to the boundaries, and if the dog gets too close, a small electric shock is sent through the collar to keep the dog from crossing the boundary set by the wire.

There are plenty of different dog fences, and each one serves a different purpose, but the best one across the board is the Innotek IUC-4100. In addition to the great reputation this system has for being durable, long-lasting, and having a good battery life, it also has a special collar fit function, which lets you know whether the collar is fitted correctly. You can even keep your dogs out of certain rooms in the house, as the Innotek IUC-4100 comes equipped with indoor pods. The only major negative of the Innotek IUC-4100 is that you cannot adjust the levels per individual collar, but only for the system as a whole. So if you have two dogs, and one needs the levels turned up higher than the other, you will be unable to adjust accordingly.

The PetSafe Little Dog system is specifically designed to fit your needs if you have a smaller dog. You have to have a specialized system for your dog if it is under 10 pounds. The PetSafe Little Dog is the best product for dogs under 10 pounds.

Dogtra EF-3000 is a great option if you have an older dog whose hearing is no longer very good. In addition to the beep emitted by other dog collars, the Dogtra EF-3000 has an advanced vibration system as well, which will warn a dog when they are getting too close to the fence.

There are plenty of options for someone wanting to put in a dog fence, and the "right fence" will vary depending on your needs. But if you have general needs, the Innotek IUC-4100 is probably the best way for you to go!
