Train your animals
It is important to train your animals to respect the Smart Fence 2 BEFORE using it to contain them.
1.
Extend the fence into a secure, permanently-fenced enclosure, so your animals
can move around it freely.
2.
Let the animals investigate the fence and receive shocks off it. Don't rush this
stage - it may take a few days for your animals to become used to the fence and
learn to stay back from it.
3.
Remember, the minor discomfort they receive during this short training period is
more than offset by the long term gains of protection and containment.
NOTE:
To aid the learning process you might consider attaching half a dozen tinfoil strips on the
fence wires to encourage animals to investigate.
