All prices are dependent on property layout, yard size, dogs and equipment requirements, new installation, repair or reinstallation and/or dog boundary changes. An average subdivision lot will be cheaper than a home with a wooded lot, lake front, long driveway or several containment zones. There is really nothing that can help you determine an accurate number other than a free consultation.

Yes. Service and repair for all kinds of underground and invisible pet fence systems such as Pet Stop, PetSafe, Innotek, Dog Guard, all Brand Formula, and other Buried Pet fence brands are available.

Lawn aeration, edging around garden beds, driveway activities, utility digging, deep root gardening, and tree root intrusion are all the common causes of wire breaks in yards within Commerce Township. In any kind of ground movement, no matter how gentle it may be over time, the wire will be stressed. If your system suddenly loses power or the transmitter is sounding beeps then a wire break is probably the cause.

Yes. No matter the size of a property from a small lot in a subdivision to a large lot, whether wooded or waterfront, underground dog fences can be crafted to fit. The boundary is not pre-formed, but is custom-configured to fit your specific property.

Yes. The correct dog fence installation and maintenance provides the ability to withstand Michigan season. When the weather conditions get cold, or the snow begins to fall, these usually don’t have an impact on the performance of the system, although there are a few scenarios that can lead to problems in winter: If system collar batteries are low, or if wires have been damaged by moveable ground caused by freeze-thaw, or if the equipment is old, winter operations may lead to problems.

Yes. All installations have training guidance. Consistency, repetition, using the boundary flags, collar tone cues, constant correction setting, and hands-on training-keeping your hands in a calm manner-are all methods that help your dog learn the boundary. A properly-trained pup knows when the safe zone starts and how it’s supposed to end.

Yes. Most underground pet fence systems are designed to accommodate more than one dog, via extra receiver collars. It could be necessary for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperament to use individual dog-specific correction settings and training plans in order to be most responsive to the system.

Yes. Depending on the condition of your system we will be able to extend, shorten, reroute or reconfigure the boundary. This is particularly prevalent after building a pool, patio, new garden area or an extension to the driveway, or when a particular area of the garden should not be accessed.

Most properties in Commerce Township are more suited for underground dog fencing because it gives them the most accurate and adjustable fence. Wireless are set-up very easily, but are not as accurate and flexible. GPS fencing is good for larger open rural areas but not as effective in residential areas with closer yards. The best option will depend on the layout of your property and your dog’s behavior as well as how much control over your dog you want.
