South Lyon Hidden Dog Fence Services
South Lyon is a collection of smaller in-town lots near downtown Pontiac Trail and Lafayette Street, established neighborhoods such as Tanglewood and Colonial Acres, and larger lots in Lyon Township near Milford Road and the Huron Valley Rail Trail. Some yards are set up to back up to McHattie Park; others are located near wooded, sloped or oddly shaped parcels adjacent to where Oakland, Livingston and Washtenaw County intersect the open fields of Volunteer Park. This format of town generally doesn’t fit a one size fits all fence, and we design every one of our underground dog fences to the specific layout of your yard, not a copy-paste of a fence that is on a price sheet.
Underground dog containment can be used for front yard fencing, back yard fencing, side yard fencing, driveways, garden protection, pool and patio protection, and multiple dog homes. Totally safe to grow up in, trustworthy, with no fear of the back door opening.

A Different Kind of Fence Company for South Lyon Pet Owners
The majority of fence companies in South Lyon have this setup for residential fencing made of wood, vinyl or chain-link fence and post holes, permits, and HOA paperwork. Pet Containment Services are different! We are fence contractors specializing in invisible, electric pet containment resulting in your dog having a secure boundary with no fence posts, hidden panels or fenced gates. An underground fence installation can be the only fence installation option available if your South Lyon subdivision has height, style or placement restrictions on fences.
We’re a family owned fence company with years of experience under our belts installing, training and repairing electric pet fence systems in Oakland, Livingston, Washtenaw, and Wayne counties. We install every major underground fence company, Invisible Fence, Pet Stop, PetSafe, Innotek and Dog Guard (among others) for a small fraction of what the national franchises charge for the same equipment.
New Fence Installation for South Lyon Yards
The first step in a new installation of an underground dog fence is a complimentary in-home consultation, where we explore your dog’s breed, energy level and habits, and design a fence that will be similar to your lot. From there our crew goes through every step, including burying the wire below the frost line, setting up the transmitter, attaching the receiver collar and placing training flags along the boundary.
We don’t square your dog’s space, no matter if you live on a smaller lot close to the centre South Lyon or a larger lot out towards Lyon township and New Hudson, layout is designed around drainage holes and pools, gardens, driveways, decks and play areas. We can complete most installations in two to four hours, and training begins the day of the installation, so your dog can start learning the new boundary right away.
Why an Electric Fence for Dogs Beats a Traditional Residential Fence
Most homeowners looking to purchase the best fence for a yard will also be looking at what type fence to go with-vinyl or the electric fence for dogs. For many properties found in South Lyon, the latter will come out on top. Here’s why:
Installation Speed
Traditional house fencing may take days or weeks to complete - with permits and material delivery accounted for, whilst the majority of underground fence installations take just one visit.
No Permits or HOA Hurdles
This is beneficial because an electric fence for dogs doesn't alter the aesthetic appeal of your yard - no permits, easements and notifying the HOA required like those for a visible wood or vinyl fence.
Works on Any Lot Shape
A traditional fence may require expensive grading or custom panels to fit the variable terrain around South Lyon and a line of underground wire can follow a line of ponds and sloping ground, wooded corners, and odd South Lyon property lines.
Keep Your View Open
No post, panel, or gate divides your area for landscaping, your gardening area, or your pool - therefore, you leave the view of all of these areas open and natural rather than being divided with a Post, Panel, or Gate.
Lower Overall Cost
An underground system is generally much less expensive than a residential fence that can completely enclose a dog without any labor, expensive lumber, vinyl fencing or expensive gate hardware.
Flexible for Multiple Dogs and Indoor Zones
Our systems support multiple containment zones for multi-dog households and indoor pet barriers to keep dogs out of kitchens, stairways, or nurseries - something a standard outdoor fence can't do at all.
Electric Pet Fence Repair in South Lyon, MI
If you have a current underground fence that is no longer functioning, you probably do not require an entire new fence. The four most common causes of fence repair calls are: `Fence wire has broken, Batteries in dead collar are dry, There is a problem with the transmitter, or the signal is weak and needs to be recalibrated. If you call for a repair of any major brand, no matter who fitted it, that day it will be done; for the majority of such visits undertaken of fences in South Lyon, the repair will be done the same day.
These are some of the indications that your system requires fence repair. The transmitter is beeping or flashing an alert, your dog has begun to get territorial or act aggressive along the fence line, collar does not go on at the fence line, you’ve recently had some landscaping or driveway work completed, or you just don’t know if it still works at all. We’ll test the entirety of the loop and will determine the cause and the least expensive solution-because fixing a working system is usually cheaper than replacing it.
Dog Fence Training and Re-Installation Services
Presented as an integral part of dog training, every dog will need to understand the dog only operates the wire when he or she learns how, so they must be taught to use it. Here’s how we handle training and re-installation for South Lyon homeowners:
Boundary Flag Training
We put a visual signal along the new boundary line so your dog can see the edge of their safe zone before he or she ever feels the collar correction that you had been giving. This makes learning easier and less intense.
With Every New Installation
No training is charged separately or treated as optional training. However, it's the same visit you have to make when installing your underground dog fence, differentiating a well-trained fence dog from regular ones wearing collars.
Paced to Your Dog's Needs
Puppies, rescues, high-energy dogs and dogs with multiple pets all learn in different ways and we do not repeat flags, repetitions or the intensity of pace in response to your dog's age, temperament and confidence.
Collar Tone and Correction Conditioning
The dog learns collar tone and the boundary first, the corrections reinforce what the collar tone relates to and nothing else, it is a teaching method that is based on understanding, not fear.
Re-Installation When You Move or Renovate
If you are moving your system within South Lyon or adding a new patio, pool or garden bed we can frequently re-use your existing wire and equipment, rather than selling you a brand new system.
Boundary Adjustments depending on your property changes
Be it your dog entering into a new fenced area, or your boundary being poorly drawn the first time, without changing your yard on the ground in any way.
Fence Financing and Free Quotes in South Lyon
Probably the first thing your homeowners ask is the cost and this will vary based on the size of your yard, layout, number of dogs, and whether you just need a repair made or a boundary change. Each yard is unique and we don’t offer estimates by phone. We will instead give you a no-frills consultation, no pressure, and discuss the process of financing your fence and payment options during that consultation, so you know what to expect before work begins.

Will my underground dog fence still work during Michigan winters?
Yes. The wire is placed below ground frost level and the system drifts on through the snow, ice and cold during South Lyon’s seasons with no concern for change of seasonal weather.

Almost always. The majority of repair calls are from a simple break in a wire, dead collar battery, or signal and these are typically less expensive and faster to repair rather than replace the entire system.
Do you provide dog fence training with installation in South Lyon?
Yes. Each new installation is accompanied by practical instruction with boundary flags, collar tones and repetitive training that is tailored for your dog’s breed, age and energy level, helping them learn to know the boundary safely.
