Highland Hidden Dog Fence Services
Pet Containment Services’ custom, underground dog fence system will allow Highland dog owners to securely enclose their canines, while allowing you to keep them safely in your yard. No two yards are alike. Some Highland residences are on smaller residential lots, some own wooded areas, some have open fields, some have long gravel driveways, some have vegetable gardens, some have sloped terrain, some have oddly-shaped borders.
It’s for this reason that a one-size-fits-all fence arrangement never works. Each system is tailored to your property layout, your dog’s breed and temperament, your daily routine and exactly what areas you want your dog to be able to access.
Your system can be installed in the: Front yard, Backyard, Side yard boundaries, Driveway crossings, Garden protection, Exclusion areas for pools or patios, Full property containment, Multi-dog households.
The solution is straightforward – clean out the space and provide full peace of mind each and every time you open that back door.

Pet Fence Wire Break Repair in Highland
Just a single broken wire in the ground could mean the end of your pet fence system. In Highland yards, the causes of when wire breaks include lawn aeration, edging, gardening, driveway care repairs, utility work, tree root growth or slow ground shifts over the years.
We use our wire break repair service to pinpoint the break, repair the underground wire and retest the entire boundary signal before we wrap it all up.
A wire break will appear as:
- Unending beeping from the transmitter
- If the light of the system indicator shifts or is turned off. When the system indicator light changes or is turned off
- The collar’s failure to deactivate in the vicinity of the perimeter
- When you see, hear, smell, or hear your dog suddenly crossing the fence line
- Part of a yard working and part not even working
- Recent digging up, edging or landscaping of property
Do not assume the system is completely dead; first check for a wire break. It’s a very common problem when repairing fences and one of the simplest to solve.
Dog Fence Training for Highland Pets
However, no fence system will prevent any dog, dog-proof or otherwise, if it’s untrained. Your dog must read and obey the boundary to get it to work.
We introduce your dog to the fence line with the training flags, colours around the dog, correction levels, repetition and calm and structured guidance. Each training plan is designed to encourage your dog based on their breed, age, energy level, confidence and behavior.
Training is particularly critical for: Puppies, Rescue dogs, High energy dogs, Huskies, German Shepherds, Labradors, Doodles, Multiple-dog homes & When dogs chase deer, cars, people, squirrels or other dogs.
The number one error of a homeowner is to not train. The underground fence is not a product, it’s a system and your dog has to be guided consistently to know where his safe area starts and ends.

Can an underground dog fence work for larger Highland properties?
Yes. Underground dog fences are tailored to suit small neighborhood yards, big lots, properties with woody areas, and irregular shapes of yards. The design of the layout should be made centered on the property rather than adopting a generic circular boundary.
Will an underground dog fence hold up during Michigan winters?
Yes. A well done job installation and maintenance on an underground dog fence is designed to withstand normal Michigan climate conditions. Typically, snow and cold temperatures do not seem to be a problem; however, low batteries, wire damage, and equipment wear can become a problem in both winter and summer.
Is training included with underground dog fence installation?
Yes. Training support is in all installations. The training of the boundary is taught via flags, collar tones, correction settings and repeated training. The system will work, only if the dog is well-trained to understand where the safe area is.
Can you install a hidden dog fence for more than one dog?
Yes. Most pet fence underground systems are made to be utilized by even more than one dog with extra pet fence receiver collars. Each breed, size and temperament may need a different method of training and a different setting to correct a dog.
Can you change the boundary on an existing underground pet fence?
Yes. Your existing system will be evaluated and if it is in good shape then the boundary will be extended or if it is in poor condition, it can be reduced, repaired or rerouted.

What's better for Highland homes - underground, wireless, or GPS dog fence?
In most cases the most effective and adjustable containment for Highland properties is an underground dog fence. Wireless systems have quicker installation time but less accuracy. GPS fencing is well suited for large open areas but cannot adequately fence for residential lots. Its selection depends on the type of yard you have, your dog and the amount of yard control you require.
