HOUSEHOLD HAZARDS THAT PUT PETS, THEIR OWNERS,
AND THEIR HOMES IN DANGER
Simple and easy way to prevent common overseen hazard

WESTBOROUGH, MA (PRWEB) January 5, 2004

With recent events happening like the house explosion in Pembroke, MA, you think Â?could I have done something to prevent this?Â? In that explosion, it is said that the two house cats may have inadvertently turned the propane tankÂ?s valve, causing the propane line to be uncapped. This caused the propane to flood the first floor, so when a fan used to cool the compressor of the refrigerator was ignited, the house exploded. The litter box for the cats was located two feet from the propane tank. The homeowner was safe and was not home at the time. (Story from WCVB-TV- Boston)

Common Household Hazards:

Along with the propane tank there are many household hazards that a pet with the run of the house can get into, harming themselves and their living environment. Some examples are listed below:

Getting into the trash can = Bones = Chocking

Chewing the wires behind the TV = Wires = Electrocution

Licking products under the sink = Chemicals = Poisoning

Getting on surfaces with candles = Hot wax = Burns

Keep in mind that these are just some of the many household hazards that pets can explore.

About the System:

The Petronix Indoor Boundary Management SystemÂ? works on both cats and dogs. The system can be used with four pets and twelve areas of the home. You could protect your pets by keeping them off the counter that has the candles on it, or keeping the pets out of the kitchen that has the hazardous material under the sink. Basically you can use the system on any piece of furniture, area of the home, and room you choose. The system has three components: the Central Console, the Zone Controller, and the Communication Collar.

The Central Console: (The brain of the system) automatically records the daily time and date each animal/system event took place to assist in determining the effectiveness of the training program.

The Indoor Zone Controller: Allows users to determine where and what range they want to protect, MIN 0-2 feet, MID 2-4 feet, and MAX 4-6 feet.

The Communication Collar Kit: The durable and waterproof construction of the collar with retractable stainless steel electrodes allows comfort for your pet. The collar is equipped to have an audio (beep tone) alert before a static correction. This alert is usually enough warning for a trained pet before the static correction is delivered.

The Petronix Boundary Management SystemÂ? would have been ideal for the homeowner in Pembroke. He could have protected the room with the propane tank with a zone controller, allowing the cats to explore any area of the home besides the room with the tank. This would have allowed him to keep his cats and home safe at the same time.
