We all love our dogs, cats or any other house pet that we bring into our families. The most common pet to have in a household is a dog or a cat, and both of them are in danger if you don’t have a safe pool fence. Today, we are going to give
you three important reasons why you need to install a safe pool fence for your pets.
1. All Breeds of Animals Drown
Even if you own a breed of dog/cat that is a good swimmer, there is a good chance that your pet would be unable to survive inside a pool. It’s very difficult for animals to make their way to the steps or the shallow area in the pool unless they manage to remember where to swim. This is definitely a chance that you don’t want to be taking with your pet regardless of their swimming skills.
2. It Takes Only A Few Seconds for A Tragedy to Occur
Most animals will drown in under 50 seconds if you are unable to rescue them or if they are unable to swim to a shallow area. This could easily be prevented with a swimming pool fence. An alarm on your pool might not be ideal because your pet could suffer from permanent damage within 10 to 20 seconds of falling into a pool. The time it takes for the alarm to trigger and warn you, and the time it takes for you to reach your pool area and rescue your pet are all going to play a major role in the outcome.
3. Your Filtration System Will Last Longer
Pets like pools. So, even if your animals are properly trained and fully capable of using your pool, you are still going to have to deal with clogged filtration systems and replacements much sooner than expected. Your animals might also enter the pool with dirt and this will contaminate the water and make it unsafe. Your pool should be free of dirt, mud, and other contaminants.
Conclusion
A safe pool fence is very useful for pets. It also adds the extra layer of safety for children even if you don’t have kids of your own.
