According to American Kennel Club, English Springer Spaniels are sweet and loveable hunting dogs. This breed has a lot of endurance and intelligence. English Springer Spaniels were first bred to work closely with humans. Due to this, they are known to be people pleasers and relatively easy to train.
English Springer Spaniels respond best to gentle, positive training environments. During training sessions, it's important that the trainer be in control at all times because English Springer Spaniels are very active and love to explore. With the help of our certified trainers, English Springer Spaniels can learn their boundaries quickly and confidently.
Izzy is a four year-old English Springer Spaniel who lives with her family in Minnesota. She enjoys spending every day with her dog mom, Becky. Izzy also loves spending her time outside, sniffing and exploring as much as she pleases.
Why did Izzy's parents contact Invisible Fence of Minnesota?
Like many pet owners, Becky wanted to give Izzy freedom to roam and play outside their house. However, Izzy's owners appreciate their outside living areas and didn't want a traditional fence to disrupt their property. It was also extremely important to Becky that Izzy could enjoy their outside areas safely and not be tempted to wander away. So, Becky contacted Invisible Fence of Minnesota for a quote and to learn more about outdoor containment for her yard.
Becky's local Invisible Fence Dealership recommended one of our outdoor containment solutions. Invisible Fence of Minnesota helped Becky choose the right solution for her and Izzy then sent out a certified pet trainer to start the training process. With our Perfect Start™ Plus Training Protocol that's animal-behaviorist approved, Becky's local dealership customized Izzy's training to create a safe and stress-free environment.
Invisible Fence of Minnesota gave Izzy the independence to meander throughout her yard safely. They were able to accomplish this while also achieving Becky's goal of avoiding a traditional fence. Now their whole family can enjoy their outdoor living spaces happily.
"Our dogs are free to be outside without us worrying about them wandering away." - Becky
