Intro to Invisible Fence Dog Collars

Do you have problems with a dog that just wont stay in your yard? Many owners have tried everything they could possibly think of to solve this issue. Many dogs can benefit from the use of an Invisible Fence. The Invisible Fence works with wiring placed underground using a radio transmitting system in a specified area. Your dog will have an Invisible Fence Computer Collar that receives the radio transmission and works with the system emitting a mild shock when your dog tries to cross the barrier.

The shock will be uncomfortable, similar to the shock a person gets from static electricity. However, if your dog tries to cross the barrier, this shock should be enough to keep him contained within the set boundary. You may use the Invisible Fence with more than one dog but they each need to have their own Invisible Fence Computer Collar.

The Invisible Fence system and Computer Collar are more beneficial to some people than installing a regular fence. Standard fencing can be quite expensive and unsightly, whereas the Invisible Fence leaves your yard looking beautiful. You cannot see the fence, and the Computer Collar has a small box that is just slightly larger than a regular collar.

Also, with the Invisible Fence and Computer Collar system, the fencing area can be put underwater and beneath driveways which gives you more options in dog enclosures. The Invisible Fence can be put under regular fencing as well in case you have a dog who has figured out how to jump the fence.


Another benefit of using the Invisible Fence and Computer Collar is that it will always be installed by a professional. This Invisible Fence installer will also assist you with determining if your dog has the proper behavior and temperament for using the Invisible Fence system and will help you to train your dog to use the Computer Collar. Many other brands of underground fencing and dog collar systems will not offer this kind of service.

Indoor Invisible Fence systems are offered as well, primarily for use with cats who are fitted with smaller Computer Collars.

Something to consider when purchasing an Invisible Fence system and Computer Collar is that while it will keep your dog inside his specified boundary area, it does not keep other dogs out. If your dog is not spayed or neutered and there are roaming dogs in your neighborhood, the Invisible Fence Computer Collar system will not protect against unwanted pregnancies.

Also, if there are bothersome dogs in the area, your dog will not be able to escape the Invisible Fence boundary. It is also not recommended for you to leave your dog unattended, anytime, anywhere, including while using the Invisible Fence and Computer Collar.

With that said, however, the benefits of the system are many, especially if you live on a busy street or even in the country where you dont want your dog to roam near your neighbors livestock. Many veterinarians and dog trainers have installed Invisible Fence and Computer Collar systems at their own homes. It is an extremely humane way to teach your dog to stay put.

Invisible Fence systems and Computer Collars are only available through the company itself. This ensures the proper placement of the boundary and the correct training of your dog to the Invisible Fence System.
