The worst day of my life was when my dog decided he would no longer stay at home – he would come and go as he pleased taking the other dog with him.  Having lived in Beaverdam for thirty years I know that times have changed and dogs may no longer travel at will – too many people, houses, and automobiles.

The best day of my life was when I called Contain-A-Pet.  Even though co-workers and friends assured me I was “throwing my money away” and that the invisible fence would definitely not work, I decided to give it a try.  I chose Contain-A-Pet because it was locally owned and was listed in the Yellow Pages.  I was very impressed with Dan Warren – his knowledge, love of dogs, and commitment to good customer service is unsurpassed.   I had my fence within the week and by the next week the dogs had been trained by Dan and Jake.

My dogs use a pet door through my garage.  I never worry about letting them in  or out and, more important, I don’t have to worry about them going off my property.  They have never attempted to go out of the boundaries since the day they were trained and I have had my fence since November, 2009.  As if a money back guarantee was not enough, they also moved my fence, not once, but twice, with no cost to me when neighbors decided to widen the lane.

I cannot say enough about the honesty and integrity of Dan and Jake – I’m a believer!!!!

Mr. Warren

Thanks to Contain-A-Pet for helping me secure my two large Labs. One had a habit of exploring the neighborhood and being found close to a main highway.  Since the installation of the underground fence system I have had no problems with him taking his trips.  Both Labs have adjusted and enjoy a 3 acre lot by running and playing and I have gained peace and confidence that they are safe.  Thanks to Jake and You for your professional job and follow ups.  What a great investment!

Thanks

Here is a testimonial from Krista Bard, owner of Bard Advisers.  She and Philip Klaus purchased a wireless indoor dog fence.  Please note that we can use our wireless indoor fence for cats too!

Did you ever hear the phrase “penny wise and pound foolish?”  Well, we thought we would be smart, save some dollars, and get an indoor dog fence from the internet pet store.  Mistake.  The wireless fence system didn’t work, the dogs would walk right up to it no matter how high we turned it up, we couldn’t get anyone on the phone for support, and the manufacturer and distributor kept volleying us back and forth to get answers.  We ended up returning the system, not without argument, wasting a huge amount of time and aggravation, and had to pay all the shipping costs.

Then we found our Richmond Dog Fence Dealer from  Contain A Pet.  What a difference!  They called us back the same day we inquired, set up an appointment, set up equipment, trained the dogs, showed us how to train the dogs too, and answered all of our questions very professionally, very patiently, and kindly.  They were gentle, but firm with our two dogs, and the dogs immediately learned new boundaries in the house.  What is important is that we learned what to do with the dogs to reinforce the indoor dog fence training.  The next day, Contain a Pet called us to see how the dog fence system was working and to see if we had any questions.  We did have a problem with one of the units, and they immediately came and tested it and replaced it.  And again, they called to double check to make sure everything was working properly.

Contain A Pet Dog Fencing truly understands what customer service is all about. This company and the way they do business should be used as a business school case study!  I know that if I have problems I can call back and they will stand behind their work and pet fence products.  I would highly recommend this company, their products and their staff to anyone who is considering purchasing a wireless indoor dog fence. They sell a quality product and have great follow up.  Don’t waste any more time researching or comparing prices, just contact them now; you’ll be happy you did, your pets will be better behaved, and you won’t have to worry about accidents on your rugs and furniture anymore!
