An Underground Dog Fence for Ray’s Labs in Wood County
Ray lived out in the country with his two labs on a large property near Wisconsin Rapids. He was concerned about his labs getting hit on the busy round in front of his house and was unable to chase after them. Dog Guard® installed the fence, helped train the dogs, and returned to readjust the fence to account for the second dog’s stronger prey drive. Now, the underground dog fence creates a firm barrier between Ray’s dogs and danger.
"
Dave at Dog Guard® was very helpful in designing the perfect fence for our labs. They did a super job on the install and training. I have recommended Dog Guard® to a number of friends."

Fencing a Working Cranberry Bog Near Marshfield
Deb lived on a cranberry bog she owned with her husband and three dogs. She needed a fence to protect her dogs from the trucks that drove around her property every day, so she decided to call Dog Guard®. We installed a fence and the dogs quickly learned to stay within the fence’s boundaries during training. Now, her children own Dog Guard® underground dog fences, too, and so do the owners of another cranberry bog down the road.
"
This fence makes life so much easier. I’d recommend them to anyone!”

Dog Guard® Underground Dog Fence FAQs
Our system’s mild corrective stimulus is similar to a door knob shock, and has been thoroughly tested for safety. Our system is so flexible that you can adjust the strength of the correction—32 levels—as well as fit your dog with an appropriately sized receiver collar.
At the end of the day, a good underground dog fencing system does not require your pet to be corrected all the time.
Instead, we help you train your dog to avoid the boundary fence. Most dogs only receive a few corrections. Plus, our system includes a second warning zone that notifies your dog when they’re within a few feet of the fence so they can easily avoid a correction.
After training on the fence is complete, simply remove the transceiver collar from your dog before taking them out of the yard.
Green and red lights illuminated on your transmitter means everything is functioning properly. If the yellow light turns on, something has gone wrong and you should call your dealer.
No, but we offer 1, 2, and 3 year battery plans so your fence never runs out of energy. Give us a call at 608-628-2609 to learn more.
When you purchase a Dog Guard® underground dog fence, you don’t just get high-quality equipment, it also comes with:
- Professional installation service
- 30-day money back guarantee
- Limited lifetime equipment warranty
- Complementary pet training assistance
- Hands-on customer service
Look for a company backed by a manufacturer that provides excellent service if there is an issue. While underground dog fences work for a range of breeds, not every dog is trainable. If this is the case for you, Dog Guard® offers a 30-day money back guarantee.
That said, after 35 years in business, we can easily say that Dog Guard® fencing solutions have worked for a variety of dog breeds across the country, from labs to lap dogs.
About as many as you want. One of our clients has 28 on it at the same time.
To protect against downtime due to power failure, you can purchase a backup battery similar to a home computer’s that will last you hours.
The Dog Guard® underground dog fence system is very affordable—much less expensive than traditional fencing like chain link or vinyl fencing, and without the maintenance headaches.
Final costs depend on the area you want to enclose (size of the fence) and how many dogs you wish to put on the system.
