3. What is Perfect Start (TM)
Pet Training protocol?
Perfect Start (TM) Pet
Training protocol is exactly what the name implies: the perfect
early training method for making sure pets learn to remain safely
within new boundaries. It's a series of step by step training
lessons that quickly, conveniently and comfortably teaches your pet
how the Invisible Fence Brand system works.
4. Are there any specific
breeds that cannot be trained to the Invisible Fence system?
We believe that with
appropriate training, just about all dogs regardless of breed can
be safely and effectively trained to an Invisible Fence system.
Every dog is an individual with different personalities and
temperaments. Our Safe Dog ® training protocols have been developed
to teach dogs, regardless of breed, age, or personality to respect
their Invisible Fence boundary.
5. Will I be able to take my
dog for a walk after he is trained to stay within his Invisible
Fence boundary?
We encourage you to take
your dog for a walk. However, we recommend that he is completely
trained to the Invisible Fence system and all the flags have been
removed, which usually takes a couple of weeks, before taking him
on walks.
6. Is an Invisible Fence
system safe for my dog?
Yes, an Invisible Fence
system is safe and humane. It is recommended by veterinarians,
professional dog trainers, behaviorists and other pet experts. In
fact, the Invisible Fence Brand is the only pet containment system
to have been granetd the ASPCA Seal of Approval® for use with dogs.
More than one million satisfied pet owners have recommended the
Invisible Fence Brand to family and friends.
7. Does the correction hurt
the dog?
The correction from a
Computer Collar ® may be uncomfortable and startling to your dog,
but it will not hurt him. Many dogs only feel the correction once
or twice and don't challenge the system afterwards.
8. What does the correction
feel like?
The correction from a
Computer Collar ® is similar to the sensation you feel when you
walk across a carpet and touch a metal doorknob. The sensation
momentarily surprises you and gets your attention.
9. How many pets can I have on
my Invisible Fence system?
You can place multiple
pets on the same Invisible Fence system. However, each pet needs to
wear his own customized Computer Collar® .
10. Can Invisible Fence Brand
be used with a pregnant dog?
In over 25 years we have
found no evidence that suggests an Invisible Fence system produces
any detrimental effects on or risks for a pregnant dog. We have had
veterinary reports of many pregnant dogs, dogs in season, and dogs
conceiving while on the Invisible Fence system. Nevertheless, we
always recommend a conservative approach. If, for some reason, you
have reservations about putting a pregnant dog on the system, we
recommend that you consult with your veterinarian.
11. Will my Invisible Fence
system work with my small dog?
Yes, in over 35 years,
dogs of just about all size, breed, age, and temperament have
successfully been trained to the Invisible Fence system. The
featherweight Computer Collar ® is small and light enough to be
worn by even the smallest breeds like Yorkshire Terriers,
Pekingese, Dachshunds, Chihuahuas and Pomeranians.
12. How long will it take to
train my dog to her new boundaries?
On average, Safe Dog®
training takes 2-3 weeks. However, since each dog is an individual
with different personalities and temperaments, the length of
training may vary.
