Re: Way OT: electric dog restrainers.

There is one at a site we will be at tomorrow I will see if I can get some info for you.

 

It works by burying a loop of cable around the perimeter this transmits a weak signal, the dog wears a collar with a built in receiver, when it gets too close it gets a shock and runs away.

 

Evil, but must be fun to watch the dog learn its boundary :-)

Subject: [ukha_d] Way OT: electric dog restrainers.

Hi,

 

 I know this is way off topic, but hoping there are a few dog owners out there that can help me. I have just spent the last hour, chasing my dog around a field behind the house, who himself was chasing 50 or so sheep......... The dog is a boxer pup (9 months old), and much fitter than me (althoug if I have to do this again, I might start to catch up if I dont have a heart attack first).

 

 Anyway to get to the point, anyone seen these electronic fences they use for dogs to keep them within the house boundary. I hate to use it, but at this stage its either going to be me or the farmer who has the dog shot. If anyones used them, I'd apprectiat some advise.

 

Thanks,

Eamon
