Dog Fence: Boundaries Your Dog Understands
You want your dog to move freely in the garden but not run out into the road? A complete dog fence kit with netting and an energiser is quick to set up and easy to move. Here you'll also find a solar fence energiser, a camping fence for holidays, a universal fence 80 cm high and a run for puppies and small dogs, so there is a solution for every situation.
How an Electric Dog Fence Works
The energiser sends short electrical pulses through the netting at regular intervals. If your dog touches the fence, it feels an unpleasant but harmless shock and quickly learns to keep its distance. The kits are available with a 230 V mains energiser or with a 12 V solar unit for areas without a power socket. Nets 25 or 50 m long with an integrated gate can be pushed into the ground without tools. For larger areas there is also a kit with polywire.
Gentle Introduction and Proper Setup
For the first few days, walk your dog on the lead along the fence and let it sniff calmly. After a first contact, most dogs avoid the fence, so stay with your dog and praise it when it keeps its distance. Choose a net height that suits the size of your dog so it cannot jump over. Keep the bottom line of the net clear of long grass, otherwise the fence loses voltage. A warning sign lets neighbours and visitors know that the fence is electrified.
Frequently asked questions
Is an electric fence cruel to dogs?
A correctly set electric fence only gives short pulses that startle but do not injure. Most dogs understand where the boundary is after one or two touches and then move around the garden relaxed. A calm introduction on the lead is important so your dog does not associate the fence with fear.
My dog jumps over the fence. What can I do?
First check whether the height suits your dog, and choose a taller net for athletic dogs. Make sure the energiser delivers enough voltage and that no grass is touching the netting. Repeating the introduction on the lead often helps too.
Can I use the dog fence on holiday as well?
Yes, the nets are light and quick to put up and take down. With a solar energiser you don't need a power socket, which is ideal for a holiday cottage or motorhome. At a campsite, a portable camping fence without electricity is often the simpler solution.
Dog Fences for the Garden and on the Go
With a dog fence, you create a safe area where your dog can run around freely. Complete kits with electric netting, a gate and an energiser are quick to put up and suit gardens, holiday cottages and properties without a permanent fence. Depending on the location, you choose a 230 V mains energiser or a 12 V solar unit. The short pulses are unpleasant but harmless, and your dog quickly learns to keep its distance. Get it used to the fence on the lead during the first few days and choose a net height that suits its size. For camping and for puppies there are portable fences and runs without electricity. Keep the bottom line of the net clear of long grass so the fence holds its voltage reliably. A warning sign on the fence shows neighbours and visitors that it is electrified.
