Here’s What a Typical Electric Dog Fence Installation Looks Like:
Our professional team works with you to create a customized safety perimeter, encompassing the yardage you need and protecting your dog against hazards such as driveways, ponds, lakeshore, or pools as well as safeguarding gardens and other spaces you don’t want your dog to disturb.
Dog GuardⓇ Out of Sight FencingⓇ uses a digital radio signal to keep your dog within selected boundaries by placing a thin but durable wire underground. Whether your home is located in the rocky Northwoods, on a steep slope, beside a cornfield, or within a busy urban neighborhood, we have methods for installing fencing to keep your dog contained.
A comfortable collar containing a small receiver is worn around your dog’s neck. This receiver works with the radio signal, which emits an appropriate stimulus level as your dog approaches the barrier. If your dog continues to advance, a second field produces maximum correction to prevent escape.
The Dog GuardⓇ system offers multiple receivers designed for different dog breeds and temperaments, with 32 correction levels. We’ll work with you to find exactly the right level of stimulus for your pet.
The boundary is marked off with flags, creating a visible boundary line for the pet. For two weeks, the dog owner should spend fifteen minutes, twice daily, walking the dog on a leash around the flag boundary. If the dog moves toward the flags, he should be told “NO!” The dog should then be moved away from the flags and given lots of praise.
By using this technique, the dog will quickly learn where the boundary is located. Once the dog becomes familiar with the visible boundary, the flags can be removed. After your system is activated, when your pet enters the reminder zone (3 to 6 feet from the signal wire) they receive your choice of an audio signal or a mild correction stimulus, warning that they are approaching the boundary.
Our highly-trained pet behavior specialists will work with you and your pet throughout the initial process to make sure training techniques and boundaries are clearly defined.
Even if the ground is frozen we can install a Dog GuardⓇ electric fence for dogs on your property. We use special techniques to anchor the wire to the ground while the ground is frozen and in the spring when the ground thaws we will return (at no extra charge) and bury the wire underground for you. Don’t let an ugly fence ruin your view!
Having your Dog GuardⓇ fence installed in the winter is the best way to keep you warm and your pet happy during the cold months. Your pet can enjoy the snow and fresh air while you stay inside where it’s warm.
Choosing the right system can be challenging with so many different companies offering similar products. But electric dog fences aren’t made equal.
We believe Dog Guard® consistently provides not only the most reasonably priced, high-quality electric dog fence system, but also industry leading customer service and support from local dealers.
This page compares three of the top-rated systems to make it easier for you to decide which is right for you and your dog.
* The signal is only transmitted a few feet, therefore, there is no benefit to an FM frequency.
** Battery consumption varies by dog’s use. We do not recommend compromising the safety of your dog by using batteries for more than 6 months.
† Waterproof language is used on website with no design standard listed.

The Dog GuardⓇ indoor pet containment solution acts as a wireless fence for your home! This solution is ideal for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes, and may be used to train your pets in a variety of indoor situations, such as:
Keeping dogs out of certain rooms of your home or apartment
Keeping pets off of your furniture
Preventing your pets from getting into the trash or potentially harmful areas
Keeping pets away from your Christmas tree
Preventing pets from going up or down stairways
Keeping pets away from entryways
The RT-2 Room Transmitter features a 10-foot cord and radiates a 360° signal up to 6 feet from the transmitter, creating a wireless fence you can use anywhere in your home. This makes it easy to relocate the transmitter (and wireless fence!) so you can train your pets on which rooms and areas of the house you want them to either avoid or be confined to.
As they learn the desired behavior for one part of your home, simply move the transmitter to the next training area!
Like our popular T-4 Outdoor Transmitter, the RT-2 Room Transmitter features dual zones and multiple signal strengths. When your pet approaches an area that is off limits, they will first be warned using an audible tone of your choice at one of the 32 levels of stimulation. If they continue moving in the direction you do NOT want them to move in, they will receive a second, stronger correction stimulus.
As with all of our products, our professionals will handle the installation and work with you and your pets to train them successfully!

“I had a wonderful experience working with Aaron to install our fence for our bernedoodle. Aaron was patient, kind and willing to walk us through all our questions . I love that the company contacts you via email and phone call to check up on you and to give you tips and tricks to make sure your animal succeeds with staying in your yard. Best investment by far!!”
“We have had Dog Guard in Crystal MN and now here in Carver MN. A few weeks ago my neighbor used his back hall and cut our fence. I called the new owner and within 1 day he was here on time and fixed the cut within about 40 minutes. Friendly personal and got the job done. I highly recommend this company if you are getting or in the market for an electronic dog fence”
