Pet Fence: Can Contain-A-Pet Help Prevent Pet Related Injuries?
Pet Related Injuries are a Growing Concern in the United States, with the number of pet related falls climbing towards 100,000 each year. According to theU.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), falls are the leading cause of non-fatal injuries in the United States. Can a pet fence help reduce the frequency of these injuries?
Because much of the U.S. population is over 60 years of age, let's take a moment to look at potential problems that elderly pet owners face, along with possible solutions and measures that can be taken to prevent pet related injuries and falls from occurring.
Elderly Pet Owners
As we move toward our senior years, many of us experience the empty nest syndrome. As a solution, we often choose to become pet owners. According to psychological studies on the overall well being of the average pet owner, the health benefits are amazing. Pets help to reduce stress, lift our spirits, keep us from being lonely, and even help us to heal more quickly (as a result of our improved mood).
With all these positives, you'd think that making the decision to own a pet was a no-brainer. Well, not so fast. Along with the positives, there are risks involved that must be discussed.
In our golden years, bones become more brittle and reflexes become slower. This often poses a problem with excitable dogs and cats. According to experts, preventative measures that greatly reduce the risk or likelihood of pet related falls include:
-
Realizing that the greatest dangers occur while walking an unpredictable or untrained pet.
-
Relying on a safe, humane, pet containment system.
-
Taking steps to be sure your dog is properly trained.
-
Don't chase after your pet! Chasing a pet that likes to run, or dealing with a leashed pet that tugs and pulls his or her owner is an injury in the making.
