Testimonials

“Mike, I wanted to drop you a quick email thanking you for our Dog Guard underground fence. We have been completely satisfied with your support and service as well as the performance of the product. I was most impressed that installation was complete about a week after I first contacted you. I greatly appreciate the training support as well as the proactive followup ‘after the sale’. I’d gladly recommend Dog Guard to other potential customers.”
