What is a Hidden Dog Fence?

A hidden fence is an underground dog fence system that uses an electronic signal to keep your dog within a designated area, such as a yard, and away from potential dangers. Watch the video to see how it works!

DogWatch has been making Hidden Dog Fence systems since 1990. Our fences are sold and installed by our network of over 200 independent DogWatch Dealers worldwide.
