We all worry about our bird dogs and their safety. Concerns about what could happen if your dog was to escape from your yard and wander the neighborhood are normal.
Even the best-behaved dog is going to create havoc when running loose: even if it’s just digging holes or eating rotten things out of the street. Sometimes they just come home parents-to-be.
Although most people who have dogs elect to put up a typical fence in either wood or chain link what they’ve quickly discovered is (a) they are an eyesore, (b) a clever dog can get over or under the fence and (c) they actually make your home values go down. You need an alternate solution for allowing your dog to safely roam your yard without the added worries of him breaking out and getting into trouble in your neighborhood or running the risk of being injured.
More and more responsible dog owners are turning to electric dog fences to fill this need. These are designed to keep your dog safely in your yard without the eye-sore of a fence, the possibility of escape, and so forth. While some (wrongly) think that these electronic fences are inhumane, the facts are that these systems are designed NOT to hurt your dog. They provide a reminder, but not a painful one.
These electronic dog fences are a blessing in disguise to dog owners who don’t want the unsightly “typical” fence. The wiring is underground (just a few inches) and is all that’s needed to establish the boundary for your dog. A transmitter uses the wires to emit a signal that the dog’s collar picks up when the dog is within the boundary. Once out of the boundary (or attempting to leave it), the collar issues a correction in the form of a light shock—similar to the static shock you get when rubbing your feet on the carpet. These transmitters and wires can be located anywhere eon your property that’s convenient for you and your dog.
The new Innotek fences have solved a lot of the technical flaws of original electronic dog fences. In the past, your dog would be able to continue through the wire boundaries after getting a small shock. However, the newer design will continue to send shocks slightly out of bounds, reminding your dog to head back, keeping him safe and sound.
Innotek electric fences also feature increasing levels of electronic stimulation so that you can set lower level shocks for when your dog approaches his boundaries. And for more stubborn dogs who go past the boundary, you can set levels of shock for a set range beyond the boundaries for added safety.
With Innotek’s newer fence system, previous models are obsolete. Older models were limited in range, making it difficult for your dog to enjoy larger spaces for running and playing. Now, even the lower end Innotek systems cover as many as five acres, and the top model can go up to 25 acres, which is great for those who have large properties.
Even options for multiple dogs are available with additional collars for use with the electric fence system.

1. A humane way of training your dog to stay inside your yard
2. Peace of mind
3. Elimination of unsightly fencing
