Q - What
is a Stubborn Dog Receiver? |
A - It's been designed for the hard-to-train dog. The shock
intensity is approximately 3 1/2 times as strong as our other
receivers. It is larger than our other receiver and weighs about
5 ounces including the collar and battery. It uses a common
9-volt battery. |
| |
Q - Will
the shock from the receiver collar be enough to keep my dog in
the yard?
|
A - NO. One of
the biggest misconceptions about underground fencing is that the
"shock" alone will keep your pet within its boundary. While the
beep and shock emitted by the receiver are a vital part of our
containment, the most important component is the training.
The shock is simply there to act as an "attention getter", a
reminder of the location of the pet's boundaries. When the dog
hears the beep or receives the correction, he will be reminded
that he is to remain within his boundary as he was trained to
do. Also, the beep and shock make him aware that he is at the
edge of his "play zone". |
| |
|
Q - How
strong is the correction? |
A - About twice
that of static electricity. Just enough to get their attention.
We train the pet to respond to the warning beep and not always
the correction. |
