What Our Customers Are Saying.

Laurie and Stateline Dogwatch did a fantastic job setting up a system for our Black Labrador Retriever, Obi-wan. We had just moved to a fairly spacious half acre here in the Midwest from the West coast where the yards tend to be very small and almost always fenced and were skeptical how a high energy, critter chasing, ball fetching, 1 ½ year old that was used to a 6 foot fence was going to do with this "new" system. It worked perfectly! We followed the 2 week training plan that Laurie provided but quickly figured out that he was trained by the 3rd day . . . simply amazing. The parade of furry visitors we have through the yard (squirrels, opossum, raccoon and an occasional fox) had us worried but he never left the yard and (most) of the critters survived to tell the story.

Laurie's "magic carpet" trick on exiting the yard for normal neighbor hood walks was easy to learn (one of the concerns we had ; how to get the dog to leave the yard when you really want him to) The installation was performed very professionally; lightening protected, no exposed wires and no unsealed holes between the controller and the yard. The hardware is holding up very well rain or shine. Thanks again Stateline for a job well done!

Hi, I just am so happy that Laurie Spain has helped me with my fence. I originally had Dog Watch equip and was very happy with the product. The person who I was dealing with switched to Pet Stop. My collar from Pet Stop has been nothing but trouble. It frequently alarms falsely in the house causing my dog to be afraid in areas that she shouldn't. I am so happy that all my equip will now be from Dog Watch. I am also thrilled with how quick and helpful Laurie is. I appreciate all of her help keeping my dogs safe.

I have had the DogWatch underground system for a year now. I have been very pleased with the system and have not had to worry about my dog's safety since putting the system in my yard. The installation was professional and the training on the system was extremely informative after the line had been laid. I can now let my dogs out to enjoy the yard with no fear that they will end up "visiting" my neighbors house. I have had a great experience with the system and would highly recommend anyone considering an underground system to contact Stateline DogWatch first. They bring knowledge and expertise to this area. Again, Wyatt and Lucy (my dogs) thank Stateline for their freedom and safety.

Just a note to let you know how pleased we are with our DogWatch hidden fence system. In the fourteen months since we’ve had it installed, it has performed flawlessly. It is such a relief to know that we can let Molly run around outside and be assured that she will be contained safe and sound in our yard. We also appreciated your prompt response to our telephone calls when we needed assistance.

Because of the reliability of your product, and your prompt, friendly, and dependable service, we would be happy to recommend Stateline DogWatch to anyone considering a hidden fence system.

Sincerely,
Mark & Mary Madaus

We have had our DogWatch system now for 6 weeks, and are very pleased. We have 2 dogs with very different personalities (and sizes) - a yellow lab, and a miniature dachshund. They have both been enclosed in an unsightly chain-linked fence that really deterred our children from playing in the back yard, and restricted the dogs from ever being out front with us. I was seriously skeptical that in 2 weeks time we would be ready to trust them without the security of a visible fence. People approaching the yard, kids playing nearby, and even squirrels and rabbits can't tempt them to cross. I am amazed!
 
Our little dog still tests her boundaries frequently, but retreats instantly when she hears the warning tone and never needs the correction! Our lab, more mellow by nature, knows the boundaries and rarely ever tests it. With the separate zones for the front and back, they can be out front with us when we are, and the back yard is so much more accessible to the kids! (And we never have to worry if the gates are shut!). They quickly learned that going through the garage between zones was safe. The system is very easy to use, and the training was very straightforward...and successful! Thanks for giving us our yard back, and for the peace of mind.... And the dogs thank you for the freedom!

My dog, Oscar, would like to express his deepest appreciation to you for freeing him from the torture of the back yard dog chain!!! 

Oscar is a 3 year old Boston Terrier with tons of energy.  Even though we have a fenced in back yard, Oscar always found a way to escape.  After spending countless hours running all over town trying to catch Oscar, we decided he would have to be tied up every time he needed to go outside.  That meant that he did not get his much needed “run” time, so he had no choice but to run laps in the house.  I quickly grew tired of cleaning up and repotting my plants and comforting my young children after he bowled them over!  Stateline Dogwatch came to our rescue!

Making the decision to install a Stateline Dogwatch system was the best thing we ever could have done for Oscar.  He is a different dog!  Now we can let him run outside with the confidence that he will not get out of the yard.  He can run off some of that Boston Terrier energy and then come back in the house and relax with the family!

Your hidden fence systems are wonderful! Thank you so much for providing such comprehensive and honest answers, fast installation and professional training for me and my dogs. I have two friendly Basset Hounds with very opposite personalities. One is energetic, persistent and always “following his nose” and the other is a couch potato who is very much on the sensitive side. That being said, I was worried about finding a hidden fence system that was strong and reliable enough to keep the persistent Basset at home, yet gentle enough to allow the sensitive Basset freedom in roaming the yard without the harsh consequences of heavy correction. That is, until I talked to you!

I’d be happy to recommend your services and the DogWatch Hidden Fence System to anyone. With the quality product, training, expertise, and long term warranty provided, I can’t think of a single reason not to use Mark, Laurie and the DogWatch Hidden Fence System.

Sincerely,

Marie Ribovich

I am very pleased to report that in the ten months since you installed our DogWatch Hidden Fence System, we have experienced no escapes from our premises by Buffy, our Siberian Husky.

I must admit, I was skeptical when my wife first suggested that we employ your solution. I had heard of other owner experiences with this particular breed and the word was that it was a risky attempt. The breed has developed a reputation for persistence and using their innate intelligence to contrive various schemes for defeating any attempt at containing them.

I fully expected that she would willingly endure any short-term physical discomfort in order to escape, and I was prepared to refuse any bid that was submitted without some assurance that an electronic fence would work for her. Your combined knowledge of dog psychology and technical knowledge of how your system worked was what sold us on selecting your company for our installation.

Neither have we been disappointed in your promise of post-installation support. The few occasions that we have needed advice or on-site service, you have been prompt and helpful in your response and in your follow-up advice on failure detection, repair and prevention. With such technical support and expertise, it is easy to envision permanent, ongoing success with our system in the years to come.

Most importantly, you have helped us supply Buffy with maximum freedom within a safe, controlled environment. This ensures that she will remain a happy resident in our family and enjoy much-improved prospects for a normal life-expectancy.

We remain your satisfied customers with best wishes for continued success in your endeavor,

Michael and Deni Upshaw

We would like to enthusiastically recommend Stateline Dog Watch to any dog owner thinking of installing an invisible fence. The professional service we received from installation to training the dogs to exceptional customer service has made the system worth the price and so much more!

We can't begin to tell you how much of a relief it is to us to be able to let Riley outside and to not worry about him leaving the yard. He has learned just how far he can go in the yard and we are amazed. He always liked to wander off into the woods and the neighbors yard. We have walked out into the woods along with our oldest grandson while Riley sat inside the boundary without ever trying to come to us. That in and of itself is truly amazing for Riley as he always felt that he had to be with us no matter where we were, especially in the woods.

We have told several of our friends how happy we are with you and your product, the lifetime guarantee, and your offer to return any time to help. Once again, thank you for the system and for your expert knowledge of dogs.

Sincerely,

Tom & Cindy Fearn
