When investing in a pet containment system, the technology is only half the solution. Professional training for both pets and their owners is crucial for ensuring safety, effectiveness, and long-term success. At Hidden Fence, we combine cutting-edge containment technology with comprehensive training programs to create the perfect solution for your pet.
Why Training Matters in Pet Containment Systems
A pet containment system is more than just boundary wires and receiver collars. Success depends on:
- Proper introduction to the system
- Consistent training methods
- A clear understanding of boundaries
- Positive reinforcement techniques
- Owner confidence and competence
Professional Training Components
For Your Pet
The dog training begins with an initial introduction phase, where dogs are gently familiarised with boundaries while building positive associations and experiencing controlled exposure to various signals under supervised boundary learning conditions. This foundation leads into progressive training, which focuses on developing step-by-step boundary recognition skills, implementing response conditioning techniques, managing distractions effectively, and reinforcing safety behaviours. A customised approach is essential throughout the process, considering breed-specific traits and individual temperament assessments while ensuring all methods are age-appropriate and properly adapted to the dog’s existing behavioural patterns.
For Pet Owners
The HiddenFence Training Advantage encompasses a comprehensive understanding of system operation and effective training techniques for pet owners. This includes mastering the management of the control unit, ensuring proper collar fitting and maintenance, and grasping essential troubleshooting basics. Owners are equipped with knowledge of appropriate correction methods and positive reinforcement strategies, emphasising the importance of consistency in commands. Additionally, owners are trained in emergency response procedures, ensuring that pet owners are prepared for any situation that may arise during the training process.
