KEEPING YOUR PET SAFE, HAPPY AND HOME
Pet Solutions by Hide-A-Fence has earned a Certification from the International Association of Canine Professionals in the revolutionary Gentle LiteTouch™ method of containment training. Professional PetSafe, a division of containment industry leader Radio Systems Corp., sponsored this certification opportunity for all dealers at a recent two-day training seminar.
Responsible owners want to make sure their pets are safe, that they do not create nuisance and more important do not cause accidents. Each year thousands of Professional PetSafe containment systems are installed by caring dog owners. These fences work by providing a static electrical stimulation to the collar of a dog to deter him from crossing established boundaries.
With their new Gentle LiteTouch™ certification, Pet Solutions by Hide-A-Fence professionals are now regional leaders in humane and positive pet containment training.
Martin Deeley, President of IACP, endorses Gentle LiteTouch™ Training. So many presume that the use of electronic collars involve harsh corrections. This does not have to be the case as is proven in the LiteTouch™ approach. Many containment systems have been taught to the dog using a much stronger jolt early in the training program. The dog will sometimes relate this strong stimulation to many things and what he learns we can never be certain, plus it generates a high stress level not conducive to his education. With LiteTouch™ the trainer guides, shows, gains understanding, and develops an appreciation from the dog of boundaries and where he is safe to play and have fun. We applaud this move by Radio Systems and Pet Solutions by Hide-A-Fence. It is responsible, far sighted and shows compassion to the dog. More than that, it alleviates the concerns many owners have that the experience of learning the containment fence will hurt their dog. I highly recommend Professional PetSafe; both for their technology and their revolutionary Gentle LiteTouch™ training program, developed by Rich Weinssen.
For those who want to keep their dogs safe and happy in their own yards, a hidden fence is an excellent investment. Hide-A-Fence is at the forefront in the installation of such a system and in the caring and training of your dog using the most gentle of approaches PetSafe’s Lite Touch™, Certified by IACP. |
