Introducing: The **FREEPER KEEPER**
http://www.offrampbums.com/freeperkeeper.html

400 yard range. Durable, rechargeable, waterproof receiver. Entry-level companion freeper trainer for medium to large breeds.
Freeper Keeper 175NCP collars have a 400-yard range, nick and constant stimulation modes along with Freeper Keepers's patented non-stimulating pager function. Features a durable waterproof receiver, water-resistant transmitter and rechargeable Ni-MH batteries.
Has user friendly controls that any freeper owner can understand. Choose your type of correction by sight or feel using large buttons. Raise the stimulation level by turning the rheostat on the top of the control. Rheostat correction-level-dial allows the user infinite correction adjustments and better control over the exact effective stimulation level.



Turn the dial to gradually increase or decrease the level of stimulation at the hand-held transmitter. Infinite (instead of pre-set) levels allow the trainer (paying close attention to the freeper) to receive very early responses from the freeper as the correction is raised so that he can stop the instant that the correction level is effective (before overwhelming the freeper with a confusingly high correction.) Rheostat control enhances the consistency of the message to maintain the freeper's momentum during training sessions. No clumsy re-setting or retooling levels during the exercises.

4. It's all in the training process... they turn on Rush, you ZAP them!
Do it enough times, they'll finally learn(maybe)... Negative Reinforcement *does* have some good qualitites.. in this instance. :evilgrin:

2. I'm concerned about bacteria and other pathogens.
What kind of cleaners may I use on my Freeper-Keeper?

But what about the carpet?

7. Well, no matter how smart or well trained your dog is, you just can't
get him to do your laundry or go to the store for you if you're sick in bed or something, but yes, a dog *is* easier to train.

19. I bet you'd get a load of freepers to buy this...
they'd think it was for their dog, kid or wife or something. If they can't tell that Colbert is mocking them, they sure would love this. :evilgrin:

27. Can we just rent this?
Say, for example, Thanksgiving dinner. I would like two units but basically for that day. I try to live freeper free unless I have family obligations. I do believe I will finally be able to enjoy a holiday dinner without indigestion. What a god-sent this will be.

28. Now that gives me something to think about!
The logistics really wouldn't allow me to do it... shipping costs, return shipping costs, having to charge your credit card for the full amount of the product (just in case anything happened to it.. kinda like getting insurance on a rental car).

It would be better just to buy one outright so you always have it on hand. You know Murphy's Law: "The unexpected doesn't always happen, but when it does, it's when you least expect it."

29. That won't work. Sorry. Not big enough.
Go to your local saddlemaker and have him build you a collar with two 3/4" bolts sticking through it.

Then go to your local welding supply and buy a Miller Dynasty 700 arc welding power source. Crank it up about halfway (the 350-amp mark) and you've got a tool that MIGHT train a reasonably compliant freeper. Set it to its full 700-amp output and it might even work on Kristinn Taylor.
