Pet Stop • May 05, 2014

Generally, there are several benefits of an electric pet fence. For instance, it is very easy to maintain since you only have to put in new batteries whenever needed hence saves time unlike the wood, chain link or vinyl fence which would require you to spend a lot of time replacing or painting the rusted area of the fence.

In addition to that, it is important to note that there are some cities with areas where zoning laws do not allow you to construct an above ground fence above your yard or there are some neighborhood associations that do not allow fencing themselves. An electric pet fence is definitely the best option for you in case you cannot build a regular fence since it only requires the burial of an underground wire around your home before putting a collar on your pet.

Furthermore, an electric pet fence is cheaper compared to the traditional above ground fence. Basically, an electric pet fence cost between one hundred to two hundred and fifty dollars depending on the quality and the manufacturer. In case you are getting an invisible style fence for the containment of your pet, you may also consider using it to safeguard valuable items such as your pool, landscaping or air conditioning unit.

It is worth noting that for many pets, the traditional fence is simply not a reliable method of containment because the pet climb over the fence or dig under it, quickly slip by when the gate is opened or destroy the fence with their teeth. However, in case you use a good pet fence training program and keep your fence in good working condition, your pet will escape or destroy its invisible boundary.

Electric pet fence is also advantageous due to the fact that it is light weight and easily transported, durable because of low physical contact, deterrent to trespassers and predator as well as easily modified. Therefore, electric pet fence is an excellent solution for convenient and economical animal control.
