How to Measure for a Real Dog Fence

Are you considering investing in a pet fence outdoors at your home? A well-constructed real fence adds value and security to a home. Realtors agree that a fenced yard can be a deal-breaker or deal-maker for families with dogs.

The biggest question is: will this work for my dog? The answer is yes! Of our 93 Google reviews, nearly 80 are five-star. While no fence is 100% dogproof, our Max 3-layer system has a success rate of over 98%, now with even more protection: 🌶️ Spicy Pro™ infused anti-chew poly mesh.

We recommend that your house serve as one side of the enclosure, ensuring your dog(s) are not isolated. For multiple dogs, we recommend a space of at least 200 linear feet or more—enough room to exercise, feel freedom, and avoid wearing the ground down in a small space. Please note that 300 linear feet can include up to double the total square footage!

Finding the right balance between strength and size is essential. If pet fences are too small, they won't enhance your dog's quality of life, simply becoming a kennel. A simple 5-minute conversation is the easiest way to get started, with no obligation. Use our 15 years of dog fence experience. Call us any time at 800‑753‑4880

Rush delivery in 5 days or less is available at no extra charge for pet fence emergencies.

Top Reasons

Anyone Can Do This!

Just a few simple steps!

❄️ Weather-Resistant 🧗 Flex Deterrent 🐺 Predator Barrier
Step 1

Our unique system uses half as many posts, with one every 15 to 20 ft, or uses a structure or tree. The location can be adjusted 5+ feet in any direction, a game changer for working around rocks, tree roots, or any obstacles.

Step 2

The steel-cabled rails are quick and easy to install, even on hills. They also make the fence incredibly difficult to climb or see, much like modern railings on beach homes.

Step 3

Two or three layers of poly and metal absorb uneven ground, making it easy to fit the fence to any shape and secure the bottom edge with almost no landscaping required!

Step 4

Our complete 12 or 13-component kits, along with detailed videos and support, have helped thousands install 200 feet of real dog fences with gates, often in a weekend. It's magic!

🌶️ Spicy Pro™ – Bitter Infused. Anti-Chew. Predator Resistant.

Our exclusive Spicy Pro™ mesh is infused with a safe but powerful bittering agent that naturally deters chewing and climbing. Paired with steel cable rails and flexible top movement, it’s built to outsmart even the most determined escape artists.
