After purchasing a beautiful lakefront property near Sheboygan, Rick and Lynn wanted to protect their young Collie from choppy waters and thin ice populated by tantalizing water fowl without sacrificing their view. They called Dave, and he installed our underground dog fence and helped train their Collie to respect it. Now, Rick and Lynn can enjoy their slice of nature knowing there’s a barrier between their pet and the water.
“
We wanted something that kept our dog safe without the ugliness of a fence. Working with Dave at Dog Guard® was the perfect answer. Dave has been a great help with the installation and was quick to respond whenever we had questions or needed help. And the side benefit is [the] Dog Guard® [system] was cheaper than a fence."
