Wireless Dog Fence
Before I submit an article on wireless dog fences, I wanted to share an article just received on dog poisoning. There have been three other deaths reported due to poisoning in the Spokane, Washington area recently and now another one just reported. A fast acting poison that is used in pest management is similar to strychnine. If a pet parent suspects poisoning, it has been advised to inject a water and hydrogen peroxide solution into the dog’s throat to cause vomiting. I hope that this will save your dog if this happens to you.
Now, to the wireless dog fence - most cities have a dog leash policy to control dogs running loose and doing things in your neighbor’s yard that they should not be doing. This can cause an unfriendly situation between you the pet parent, and your neighbor. If your dog has a fenced yard, you 
will not have to worry about the whereabouts of your dog, or if you live in a restricted area that does not allow fenced yards. A wireless dog fence is your answer. They are less expensive compared to having a traditional fence built, and leaves an appearance of not having a fence that takes away the beauty of your home. A wireless dog can be placed in boundaries that you decide upon, such as keeping your dog out of your garden, flower beds, entrance to your front door, or wherever you want to control their running and playing, or just relaxing watching the traffic go by. This is an awesome way of control and takes little time in the installation. However, you must keep in mind that a wireless dog fence will not work if your ground is hilly or you have many trees in your area. Not only can a wireless dog fence be used around the perimeter of your yard, but can be used inside your home as well. Another way you can utilize a wireless fence is if you are going for an outing, you can take the wireless dog fence along and plug the control into your vehicles cigarette lighter, even into your boat, (do not forget their dog life jacket) if you are a boat enthusiasts. Your dog will love it and you will love the convenience of having your dog go along with you, enjoying the fun and activities. Be Happy!
Install An Underground Dog Fence, You Won’t Be Sorry
It does not matter what kind of dog fence you have for your dog, but that you have one if your back yard is not fenced. There are many types of dog fences that can be installed and vary in cost of the installation involved. Wire, wood, brick, decorative, or fences that are 
underground, are critical for pet owners. Whatever is decided upon, each has a purpose. Avoiding accidents, keeping your dog safe in an area you choose, is an excellent way to confine your pet for peace of mind. If possible, with cost effectiveness in consideration, an underground fence is your answer. Underground dog fences can be installed very easily with less effort than building any other kind. The pet containment you choose will relieve constant worry about your dog getting out side and running off or hit by a car. You still need to monitor them as to there whereabouts.
Underground dog fences are installed in and around areas that you do not want your dog to get into, such as your garden or flowerbeds that you have worked so hard in establishing. You certainly do not want your dog galloping all over the place, destroying what you are proud of. Underground dog fences are placed a few inches below the surface, and have a special collar that can be programmed within the perimeter that you decide upon. It is important to decide where you want to place the transmitter into the electrical outlet. A signal is transmitted to the 
underground wire that will send a warning beep to your dog’s collar, cautioning your dog not to go any farther. Training flags are set several feet apart where the underground wire is buried, and this indicates to your dog just how far they can go. The signal can be anywhere from four to 15 feet from the wire. Just a short anecdote to the underground dog fence was an idea that I had. Traveling with my dog to visit relatives I decided to take his collar and the flags that I used to train him with, placed the flags around the perimeter of the back yard, and bingo. My boy (dog) actually thought that he would get a warning beep if he went to close to the flags. It was unbelievable to watch him. Here he was in a place that he was not familiar with, but still respected the flags. He was either a very smart boy or I was a brilliant pet parent. Either way, it worked. Be Happy!
Wireless Dog Fences Are Money Savers
Due to our nation’s economic upset, money is not something you want to throw away on products that will not be beneficial in keeping your dog out of 
harm’s way. Living in the city limits, or out in rural areas where there is a lot of room for your dog to run and play, but are not contained in a specific area, your dog could run away, get lost, or even have an accident. Older residences have back yards that are fenced in for privacy, a place for your children to play, and an area where your dog can be safe. Most fences that are constructed around perimeters of a new home have a wooden fence, about six feet high or so. Older homes may have chain link fences, or split-rail fences that are attractive, but not entirely safe for your dog. They can dig under the chain link fence, and probably walk right through the other fence. Masonry walls are beautiful, but expensive, and fences that are made of narrow slats of wood are okay, but you have to keep them painted regularly to look nice. There are so many different types of fences to consider, choose the one that is right for you and your dog.
A wireless dog fence is inexpensive compared to installing any other kind of containment for your dog to have some independence, but will still be controlled by their pet parent. Wireless dog fences are easy to install, no digging trenches to bury wires, just has two items, a transmitter, and a remote collar. The only drawback is that the wireless fence will not deter 
other animals. The transmitter will control an area from ten feet to ninety feet. Depending on the area selected, the dog collar is signaled from the transmitter causing a beep which will caution your dog to the limit allowed within the perimeter of your yard. Be Happy!

Off Limits Control – Install an Electronic Dog Fence
Electronic dog fences are designed in limiting your dog to areas that are off limits for them to run and play. They can do all of this within the perimeter of the area that the pet parent chooses, and still have enough room to play. 
Dogs will learn their limitation of areas within their pet parents’ property. Keeping your dog from roaming beyond their limit of safety will protect them from harm, and you will have peace of mind knowing where they are. Underground dog fences relieves the fear of your dog running off, and possibly getting lost if the identify information on their tags has not been updated. Always check to make sure the information has not been worn off accidently in the wear and tear of your dog’s collar and tags.
Underground dog fences are easy to install, and training your dog in the areas they are allowed to wander within the perimeter of your home, is a true comfort level for the pet parent. A small wire is buried under the area you choose, and a pet collar with a 
receiver is used to control your dog’s allowed distance. A link connecting the pet collar to the buried wire is battery operated, and will enforce the distance allowed from the inside of the wires perimeter. If your dog moves too close to the governed area, there will be a slight shock from the pet’s collar warning them they are too close. The shock is nothing to be concerned about because it is minimal, but affected. Training flags are provided in training, and are set several feet apart for visual experience to the dog. When all is complete with training your dog to the distance allowed, your dog may not even need their collar, but I would be very careful in making a decision such as this. Be Happy!
WOW! A Wireless Dog Fence
I personally had a dog fence that was underground and worked great in keeping our dog from running off, or even worse, getting hit by a vehicle traveling up and down on a dead-end road. Our present back yard is very small, so we just put up a board fence, but if I had more room you can be 
sure an underground dog fence would be installed. Just a little humor, we took our dog on a trip to visit family and packed his underground dog fence flags used in training, and the collar that goes with it. When we arrived, I placed the flags out in the back yard, put his collar on, and then let him out of the house, without any connections. I had no idea if this was going to work in keeping him confined, but believe me; he had just as much respect there as he has in his own yard. Consider this great product for your dog.
Wireless fences work differently than the underground fence, because there are no underground wires to contend with. Collars are still worn, but the 
system sends signals from a unit which is either in the home or installed in the garage. If your dog moves farther than the circular area where you want to contain them, a signal is lost on their collar, and a shock occurs in warning the dog. The cost of building a wooden or wire fence will cost much more than the wireless or the underground fence. The wireless dog fence can be a bit more difficult if your yard has an abundance of trees and hills, so remember in considering the wireless fence, the containment of keeping your dog inside the area is circular.

Pet Safety in Heaven – Part 1
The letter was addressed to the Keeper of Heaven with a return address and lots of stamps because heaven was so far away. A few days after the letter was mailed the little girl asked her mother if she thought that the Keeper of Heaven had received it. The mother said that she thought it had been delivered and not to worry about pet safety for her dog, it would be taken care of. The very next day a package arrived in gold paper and addressed to the little girl. When she opened the package there was a book by Mr. Rogers called, “When a Pet Dies.” When she opened the book, on the inside of the front cover was the letter that had been sent to heaven and opened to show the little girl that her letter had been read. Also, the picture of the little girl and her dog was taped on the inside cover as well. A note was also attached!
The note told the little girl that her dog had arrived safely in heaven and that the picture was helpful in recognizing her precious pet. The note also stated that the Keeper had no pockets to keep her picture in, so that’s way it was sent back to her with the little book. That way, she would always have something to remember her precious dog. There had to have been a beautiful person working in the dead letter office of the US postal service. Now, aren’t you glad I shared this story with you. I am! Be Happy!
