 Today's pet owner has many
containment issues to
consider, including not only
their pet's safety, but their
town's ordinances, local
fencing restrictions, and
leash laws as well. Not
surprisingly, the media has
been very active in covering
hidden fencing and pet
containment issues.
Responsible dog owners are
seeking the safest, most
effective means of containment
for their furry family
members. But, these issues
affect not only pet owners but
their neighborhoods and
communities in general. See
below for highlights from
recent articles on DogWatch
and Hidden Fencing.

A hidden fence has provided
flexibility and security for a
busy woman and her dog.

Now that spring is near,
gardens need more than just
sunlight, soil and water. They
need protection from the
family dog...

Kalani and Jeeter are two
boisterous Husky dogs, who, if
they had their way, would roam
for miles around the
countryside of Elgin, Texas.
For owner Kurt Zeitler, that
just wouldn't work. But
neither would the expense of
building a high fence around
his large yard. Zeitler
settled on a "hidden fence,"
which is a wire buried a few
inches in the ground around
the perimeter of his place.

Natick
- Each night when he lets his
5-year old border collie mix,
Emma, out for her evening romp
in his suburban Wakefield
backyard, Chris Blackburn is
secure in the knowledge that
his beloved mutt won't tample
his garden or flee the
property altogether.

Dogs can sometimes be shocked
even when they are on good
behavior because of
interference by television
signals. DogWatch has switched
from the standard AM radio
signal to a more precise FM
signal for its transmitters to
avoid that problem."

I lost a dog last year to a
speeding car -- the one he
finally caught.

What
you can't see can help you; it
may even save your pet's life.
That's the principle behind
underground pet containment
systems...many veterinarians
believe the safety factor far
outweighs...philosophical
objections. The brief sting of
a shock hurts your dog far
less than the potential pain
of a tragic encounter with a
speeding car on a busy street.
The Reviewer - June 1993
Do
you have one of those dogs
that dart when the front door
opens? One that is usually
well behaved until someone
comes to visit, the front door
opens, then ZOOOOM, nothing
but wind and a tail out of
sight...but now thanks to
DogWatch, I don't have to
worry or support the pound
anymore.
