Hello,
we are Mark
& Laurie
Spain of Stateline Dog
Watch Hidden Fences. We would like
to take a minute to give a little
history as to how we became the
DogWatch dealer for northwestern
Illinois and southern Wisconsin.
Having moved from a privacy fenced
subdivision to a rural property in
1998 we were in the market for an
electronic dog fence. Unfortunately
we did not do our homework to
compare features that the different
systems offered. We had an Invisible
Fence brand system installed. It did
contain our dog but when the
batteries ran out so did he. After
having to Chase Eli down a busy
county black top THREE times in one
year we traded in our Invisible
Fence for a DogWatch Hidden Fence
System. The long battery life (2
years) and nominal cost ($12.50 per
2 years) is what first attracted us
to Dog Watch. It was then that we
realized the long list of benefits
DogWatch offers to keep our pets
safe. This ranges from the Safelink
Digital FM signal , individual
settings for multiple dogs and the
list goes on. That is why we get so
excited talking about what DogWatch
has to offer. We don’t want people
to make the same mistake we first
made.
In 2003 we called for service and
found DogWatch was seeking a new
representative for the area. With
Laurie's experience as Certified
Veterinary Technician and Marks
background in mechanical engineering
we were a good fit to join the
DogWatch Family of Dealers. For 3
years Laurie & Mark balance her life
between building Stateline Dogwatch
Inc. and their full time jobs. Our 3
sons also contribute to the business
on a regular basis with installs and
service. Our second year in business
we were honored with the award of “
2005 Rookie Of The Year” at the 2006
annual DogWatch Dealer Meeting.
As a C.V.T. Laurie has a developed a
deep understanding of canine
behavior and the training process.
This benefits our clients dogs as
she uses a very low stress, praise
based introduction to the fence.
The spring of 2007 is an exciting
one as Laurie has retired after 25
years at the animal clinic to
service the needs of our clients on
a fulltime basis. The importance of
starting with quality equipment
cannot be overstated, but service
after the sale is equally important.
We will strive to serve you as we
would wish to be served.
If you have any questions please
don’t hesitate to call us at
815-335-1114 or toll free
866-364-3369 or you can e-mail us
under the contact us icon. We look
forward to UNLEASHING YOUR DOG!
Sincerely,
