In reality, modern electric fences are designed with the pet’s well-being in mind
Electric dog fences are sometimes misunderstood, leading to myths and misconceptions about their functionality and safety. One of the most common misconceptions is that these systems are harmful or cruel to dogs. In reality, modern electric fences are designed with the pet’s well-being in mind, delivering a mild static correction that is neither painful nor harmful. The correction is merely a deterrent to guide the dog’s behavior, similar to how a leash or harness provides control during walks.
