Underground Dog Fence Services in Southeast Michigan
At Pet Containment Services
If you are moving, but want to bring your control panel with you in order to keep Fido from accidentally leaving the new house, we have got it covered. Our technicians can professionally rewire the yard, flag it, and give an introductory training session in order to ensure your pet’s safety.
Perhaps your dog has discovered that mom’s garden is extremely fun to dig in, but you don’t want to set up an entire above ground fence to keep him out. We can offer a partial reinstall to keep your furry friend out of trouble; depending on the situation, we are capable of extending and/or retracting the boundaries of an underground fence as well as wiring off specific areas within the yard.

We offer full pet containment services throughout the Southeast Michigan new hidden fence installation, wire break repair, professional pet training, and system reinstallation at a new address.

New Underground Dog Fence Installation - Michigan
Custom Hidden Pet Fence Systems Made to Your Yard
Underground dog fence can offer the liberty to your pet to enjoy the yard and at the same time ensure that they are not out of the fence that you have allocated. No physical hindrance, no excavation, no leaping. It can be installed on virtually any grade and can be designed to go around any shape of the yard – pools, slopes, driveways, gardens and outbuildings.
We develop each system individually depending on your property. In a free in-home visit, we survey the yard, evaluate the breed and size of your dog, and talk with you about any areas you need to add or take away from the containment area. We do not provide a universal package since no two properties or pets in Michigan are the same.
What every new fence installation includes:
- Free yard evaluation and tailored system design, in-home
- Full containment perimeter professional underground wire burial
- Installation, configuration, and system test of transmitters
- Receiver collar that fits your dog based on size and coat
- Set up a boundary flag to learn the boundaries with your dog
- Full introductory training during the day of installation
- Kitchen, stairway, or room restrictions: indoor containment units
- Free post-installation service and no extra call-out charge
We install one-pet systems and multi-dog systems. We also stock high-drive breed equipment which demands higher levels of correction.
Pet Fence Wire Break Repair - Southeast Michigan
Same-Day Fence Wire Break Repair across Brands
Your whole system goes down with a wire break anywhere in your loop of underground fencing. Your dog can walk out of the yard without being corrected, the transmitter loses signal, the collar ceases to react, and you can no longer correct your dog. It is our highest volume service call and we fix the majority of these cases within the same day of your phone call to us throughout the Southeast of Michigan.
We have technicians with professional signal-tracing equipment that will find any breaks in the shortest time possible, without the guesswork or trenching the entire yard. We find the problem, describe the cause of the problem and provide you an accurate written estimate prior to any repair work.
Our fence wire break repair process:
- Free on-site system evaluation – no fee to visit and diagnose
- Signal detectors to locate single or multiple breaks in wires
- Written estimate given honestly prior to commencement of work
- Break repaired or section rewired and full loop tested before we leave
- Time and labor-based pricing – no overcharged flat fees
Rewiring a damaged area of a wire with more than one break, or which has been badly damaged (as by large scale landscaping or construction) is usually more convenient and economical than splicing up each break separately. We will be sincere with you on what approach suits your circumstances. We do not suggest you do more work than what is required by your system.
Professional Pet Fence Training - Michigan
What Makes an Underground Fence Work Properly? Its Training
An underground pet fence can only be as effective as the training. Most dogs, unless they are provided with structured, boundary training, get either confused, and anxious around the fence, or learn to break through the correction completely. All our new systems come with a professional training session the same day – we do not go until your dog is responding correctly and you know how to reinforce the boundaries at home.
We train positively and calmly. We walk your dog at its pace and modify our approach according to the age, breed, size and temperament of your dog. Breeds with high drive, like the Huskies, Labs and German Shepherds, demand a different method than smaller or more sensitive dogs and we consider that at the beginning.

Pet Training is available for:
- Dogs that have not seen an underground fence before
- Breaking through or no longer respecting existing boundaries
- New pets joining an existing system installed in a household
- Dogs that had been poorly trained by a previous installer
- Families with more than one dog that requires a collar and personal attention
Existing systems can be trained in standalone lessons. When your dog has started ignoring the fence, call us before you think that the equipment is the problem in most cases, the problem can be corrected by a training approach without any new equipment.
Underground Pet Fence ReInstallation - Michigan
Moving to a New Home? Bring Your Fence System With You
Moving to a different location in Michigan does not imply abandoning your underground dog fence or buying a whole new one. Pet Containment Services installs current underground fence systems, transmitter, wire, and receiver collars, in your new location. We take care of the entire procedure, such as yard design, wire burial, boundary flagging and a new training session to ensure your dog adapts to the new boundaries appropriately.
Homeowners can also be reinstated to reconfigure an existing fence at their present property, without the need to replace the entire system. This is an effective and affordable alternative to re-invention.
Common reasons Michigan homeowners request reinstallation or boundary reconfiguration:
- Moving to a new home in Michigan and retaining a system
- Expansion of boundaries to a newly added yard section or outbuilding
- Minimizing the containment area following a change in property or landscaping
- Bypassing the fence line in favor of a new pool, garden, or addition to the building
- Repairing a bad original installation by a different firm
- Landscaping or building after the system rearranged the old wire
Each re-installation and re-configuring involves new boundary flagging and retraining your dog. New boundaries need to be reintroduced before you remove the flags, even with the familiar system of your pet.

Why Southeast Michigan Pet Owners Choose Us Over National Brands
Michigan has a number of pet fence firms. This is the difference in practice between Pet Containment Services.
You can be assured of lower prices because there are no franchise fees. Franchise royalties and corporate overhead is transferred by national brand installers to every single quote you are given. We are privately owned and operated and therefore are priced on actual materials and labor in the local town – nothing less.
We judge and then we accuse. All repairs and service calls start with a free on-site evaluation. We diagnose the problem, tell you what we discovered and provide you with a written estimate before a tool is removed. It is up to you to get going. No pressure or call-out fee.
Everything is done by one team. We are not outsourcing installations, training or repairing to third parties. The same technicians who install your system, train your dog and appear when something is wrong. This consistency is important and it reflects in our customer reviews.
We have been serving Southeast Michigan pet owners and built our entire business on referrals and repeat customers. There is no advertising budget that replaces that kind of reputation.
