When The GPS Collar Finally Worked

Another problem with the GPS Dog Collar is if the dog would understand what the device is doing. In the tests, a very significant development came up in respect to the Halo Collar where Luna heard the warning cue and stopped and simply stood there. She required no callback, no physical repositioning at all. That’s really positive since it suggests the training is starting to pay off.

It’s even more promising that during the testing with the Halo Collar, she pauses when she hears the warning cue, since it shows that she has started to comprehend what the warning cue means. She has learnt that when she hears the warning signal it is time to halt since she is nearing a barrier she should not get near to.

The primary feature of the Virtual Dog Fence is the ability to establish boundaries without the need for a physical barrier in the territory. But it takes time, patience, and supervision for a dog to grasp the link between the limits and the warning signals. As far as Luna's reaction was concerned, it did not indicate that she was already trained but her reaction offered a solid indicator that she began to comprehend the relationship between the warning signal and the virtual barrier.

For dog owners who are looking to buy a Wireless Dog Fence, behavior should be an indicator and not features to see if the device will satisfy their expectations. This example showed a functional application of a GPS confinement system in a dog's training process, as long as Luna came close to the border, heard the signal and stopped without being recalled by the owner.

The review is done after actually testing this out with Luna the dog. Results may change from dog to dog based on training and surroundings.
