If you have a temperamental dog, then the SDF-100 is what you need for it. It
doesn't matter if your dog is hard to train since the SDF-100 has shown results
with the most stubborn of dogs.
Principle of Operation
The system works by emitting radio waves from the transmitter to the far end of
the boundaries that you decide to set for your dog. The pet is trained to the
presence of the predefined safe zone using the training flags for visual aid for
the first couple of weeks. When the dog gets too close to the limits of the safe
area, the collar will emit a sound that is meant to be a warning. If the dog
tries to leave the boundary limit, then the collar will administer static shocks
in increasing intensity in order to discourage it from trying again to leave the
area.
The system provides a collar that is resistant to water and can be worn in any
type of weather: it works with a 9 volt battery that has to be replaced about
every 9 months. The Sportdog's SDF-100 includes a DVD that will teach you how to
use the system to train your dog and keep it inside your house.
Other Feature Offerings
One of the best features of the Sportdog's in ground fence is the anti-linger
mechanism that it includes and that prevents your pet from wandering off and
going away even after the batteries have run out of power. The progressive
correction that can be adjusted based on the temperament of the dog is yet
another noteworthy offering. Other noteworthy features are the low battery
indicator, the loop indicant, and a collar that can be adjusted to your dog's
neck's size.
The collar of the SDF-100 is designed to be used on dogs that are at least 4
kilograms and 500 grams. Toy dogs and small breeds should use other types of
collar. The SDF-100 unit comes with a 1000 feet boundary wire and 100 training
flags which can be further extended to a maximum of 100 acres of boundary area
using extra wires and training flags. Additional collars can also be purchased
if you own more than one dog.
The SDF-100 is the perfect solution for owners of dogs that are too temperamental. The system gives correction to dogs in doses that match the animal's temperament. You can also expand the Sportdog's SDF-100 if you want, by purchasing additional wire.
