EF-4000: Foreword 

 

The understanding between a dog and his owner has existed since a long time. Nonetheless, a 
dog is often guided by his natural instincts and breaks the rules his master has taught him, 
causing complaints about straying and damage such as: damage to flowerbeds, jumping into 
swimming pools, etc. More seriously, he may be the victim or the cause of road accident. 
The EF-4000 pet fencing is a modern and highly effective system enabling one or more dogs to 
run freely within a perimeter, fenced or unfenced, which you define.
