Your home should be a haven for every family member, including your furry companions. Beyond providing the essentials like food and water, ensuring your pet's safety and comfort is a key responsibility for pet parents. Creating a safe environment at home where your pet can thrive is crucial for their health and happiness.

Taking care of a pet’s safety isn’t always easy, but luckily, some brands focus on simplifying this. PetSafe is one such brand, offering innovative solutions to make pet care more manageable. Since its founding in 1998, PetSafe has grown to provide products globally, including Europe, Canada, and Australia. With a wide range of items—from containment systems to training tools—PetSafe is dedicated to ensuring your pet's safety and well-being. Here are some of the PetSafe products every pet owner should consider.

PetSafe Wireless Fence

Pets love spending time outdoors, where they can run and explore freely. However, simply letting your pet roam without supervision can be dangerous. From traffic accidents to altercations with other animals, there are plenty of risks outside the safety of your yard. Traditional fencing can help, but it isn’t always practical or affordable for all homes. That's where PetSafe's wireless fence comes in—a convenient and cost-effective solution for keeping your pets safe within your property.

PetSafe's wireless fences provide a simple yet effective way to contain your pet without the need for physical barriers. These fences use a wireless transmitter that communicates with a special collar worn by your dog. When your pet approaches the boundary, the collar emits a warning sound. If they cross the boundary, the collar delivers a mild static correction to encourage them to stay within the designated area.

Don’t worry—the static correction is completely safe and humane. It's a light zap designed to get your pet’s attention, not to harm them. Over time, your pet will associate the warning beep with the boundary and learn to stay within the safe zone. What’s great about the PetSafe wireless fence is its ease of setup. There’s no need to dig holes or install heavy fencing. Simply position the transmitter, place the fence flags around the yard, and let your pet explore within the set boundary.

The wireless fence system is adjustable, so you can create a large or small containment area depending on your needs. Whether you want to cover your entire yard or just a small section, the system allows for customisation. PetSafe also offers portable options, so you can bring the wireless fence with you when travelling or moving to a new home. It’s the perfect solution for pet owners who want to keep their furry friends safe without sacrificing their home’s aesthetics or spending a fortune on traditional fencing.

PetSafe Easy Walk Harness

To walk your dog, you will need a harness. Harnesses provide you with greater control over your dog than collars. While it may not always prevent a dog from tugging, it does make it easier to restrain them. Furthermore, a harness does not place unnecessary strain on your dog's neck like a collar does, which can lead to injury. 

PetSafe's Easy Walk Harness is designed to subly redirect your dog when they pull on their leash. The harness fits across your dog's chest and gently steers back towards you if he lunges, jumps, or veers off course to follow an errant squirrel. Because the harness sits on your dog's torso rather than around their neck, it will not feel suffocated or stretched when the gadget corrects course.

The Easy Walk harness has seatbelt-style snap closures that make it easy to put on and take off, and it does not restrict your dog's movement like vest-style harnesses. 

PetSafe Easy Walk harnesses are available in eight sizes, so there is something for every dog, from Chihuahuas to St. Bernards! The straps within the harness are also adjustable, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. Refer to the brand's chart, which is based on chest measurements, to determine the appropriate size for your dog.

Pet Door

Leaving your dog indoors for long periods can lead to discomfort and potential health issues, such as bladder infections or anxiety. Allowing pets outdoor access can prevent these issues, and PetSafe provides a range of pet doors that cater to various needs.

PetSafe’s pet doors come in different styles—sliding doors, screen doors, and standard doors. You can choose from durable materials like plastic, glass, or aluminium, depending on your home's aesthetic and your pet's size.

For added security, PetSafe offers electronic and microchip-activated doors. These doors ensure that only your pet can come and go, preventing other animals from entering your home. There are also models with four-way locks, giving you control over when your pet can access the outdoors.

Bark Collar

Although barking is a natural thing that all dogs do, some require assistance in learning when to shut down their barking or in determining when to warn those around them. PetSafe offers a range of bark collars to assist you in curbing your dog's tendency to bark.

An electrical component attached to these collars warns your dog gently when they bark. Over time, they will learn to correlate the negative response with their barking and will change how they behave.

PetSafe bark collars are divided into four stimulation categories:

• Static collar: Detects when your dog barks and releases a little shock. Large and stubborn dogs benefit most from these collars, which have various correction modes and customizable stimulation intensities.
• Vibration collar: Stops your dog from barking by using sensation. It's the safest method of getting your dog to pay attention, which makes it perfect for senior dogs and dogs with hearing problems.
• Sound collar: Stops the barking by emitting a beeping or ultrasonic sound. Although the stimulation has been shown to be safe and ear-friendly, your dog may find it irritating.
• Spray collar: Release a scented or non-scented spray. Your dog gets distracted from barking by the quick burst of mist in front of their nose. This spray is safe for your dog's coat and works well on all dog breeds, however it works best on smaller dogs.
