A mischievous dog can literally take over your life. Maybe your dog runs away so frequently that the dog shelter has your phone number memorized. Or maybe you've gotten so good at making "Lost Dog" signs that you're seriously considering starting a side business. These nasty and annoying habits can be immediately stopped with two excellent training products available at local pet stores and online. Examine how each of them can assist you and then decide which is best for you.
Dog Fences That Are Invisible
If you own a "dog shelter veteran," you'll probably want to get one of these invisible pet fences. They aren't invisible in a creepy way, but they are more effective than a physical fence. If you already have a wooden or metal fence in your backyard, for example, you may still be dealing with a dog who digs or who appears to be Houdini reincarnated.

If the dog is escaping, you must install an invisible dog fence. It employs a flexible wire powered by a small plug-in unit and includes a corrective collar. It's as simple as encircling your desired boundary, plugging in the power unit, and securing the collar around your dog's neck.
The dog will not receive proper correction if proper contact is not made. The great thing about this system is that it is active 24 hours a day, so you don't have to worry about your dog escaping while you are away. With one of the many invisible dog fences available, your dog will be safe and secure wherever you want him.
Collars for GPS Tracking
If your dog is constantly running away, this system can help you find him in minutes because the signal strength can reach up to 12 miles on flat ground and about 7 miles on hilly terrain. These collars are most commonly used on hunting trips. This is due to the fact that knowing where the dogs are is critical to completing the hunt and retrieval process. Bird dogs, in particular, can have a one-track mind and tend to pursue their goal without stopping until they reach it.
This is why they have been such valuable hunting partners for centuries. However, finding them can be difficult. With older tracking collar technology (still used today), a radio signal is transmitted from the dogs' collars and sent directly to the hand unit, which receives the signal and emits a beeping sound to notify the dog owner of the direction in which their dogs are located.
However, GPS tracking collars combine the precise technology of Global Positioning Systems with the long-used radio signal technology. The end result is an ultra-smart tracking collar that can tell dog owners where their dogs are at all times. With this type of collar, you can find your "little runaway" in minutes!
If you look through the available invisible dog fences and GPS tracking collars, you're sure to find one that will help you keep your dog in your yard. And if your dog does manage to escape for whatever reason, you'll be able to find him quickly!
