Underground Dog Fence Installation
More freedom for your dog, without a physical fence blocking the view. We install a buried boundary wire, fit a rechargeable receiver collar, and gently teach your dog where the yard ends.
“From the start, communication and professionalism were amazing: prompt responses, a clear quote, and a friendly, patient Cameron made the entire process seamless. He took the time to customize the system for our yard and our dog’s personality, ensuring everything was a perfect fit.”

What’s included
Everything is installed in one visit.
Most installs take three to five hours, and your dog’s training starts before we leave.
A boundary made for your yard
The blue line is the wire, buried about five inches deep around the area you choose: the whole property or just the backyard. Driveway crossings, garden loops, even indoor exclusion zones - each system is custom designed to suit your needs.
A light, rechargeable collar
The receiver weighs about an ounce, so it suits tiny breeds and giants alike. A three-hour charge lasts about four weeks. No disposable batteries to buy, no routine maintenance costs, no subscription.
Training and support
GentleSteps starts on install day, with the collar set to only deliver an audible warning beep. Correction is slowly introduced over about a week, with plenty of treats and praise to gently teach your dog the rules. You also get unlimited phone and text support and a free revisit within 30 days.
Safety and fit
Is it right for my dog?
Gentle by design
Day one is beep only. Over the next week we bring in the static correction gradually, starting at a level most dogs barely notice, with plenty of treats and praise. It only goes as high as your dog needs, and most trained dogs end up turning back at the beep alone.
A fit for dogs of many sizes and breeds
Puppies can start at 12 weeks, and there’s no minimum or maximum weight. One system covers as many dogs as you have, and each dog’s collar is set on its own, so a timid dog and a stubborn one can share the same yard. Strong-willed breeds like Huskies and Great Pyrenees may need a higher setting and a little more patience.
12month money-back guarantee
Backed by a guarantee
If we can’t keep your dog contained in the first 12 months, you get your money back, as long as your dog wears the collar, you follow the training plan and you give us a fair chance to adjust the settings. It doesn’t cover a gate left open where no wire protects it, or negligence unrelated to the equipment. The equipment has a 20-year UltraCare warranty, with a replacement fee of 20% of the item’s original price.
I was telling him how much I value the system and how little it actually costs when you think about how long you’ll have it. There is no way my dogs would have this amount of space to run if I had to pay for a regular ‘human’ fence. Only regret was that I waited as long as I did.

He helped us through all the training even with our stubborn Blue Heeler! I was a bit skeptical but it has worked like a dream!!
LLeah Williams Google reviewWhen a physical fence was beyond the budget
Realizing a built fence was not in the budget for our 1/2 acre yard, Dog Fence was the best choice. Cameron was excellent at letting us know this was a good work around for a very busy dog. We are now able to play in the back and front yards without worry.
EEve Baker Google reviewA determined, prey-driven dog
We live in a semi rural area with no fences so this was a perfect solution. Our stubborn prey driven Airedale took a while to catch on but overall he respects the boundaries.
BBrian Davis Google reviewHelp for a nervous puppy
When we had issues with the poor pups being nervous of the fence after accidentally crossing it, Cameron helped me to work with her to fix that issue. Overall, it’s been a great experience.
JJackie Toman Google reviewWhy the rechargeable collar mattered
What set Dog Fence Ontario apart from the other types of invisible fences was the rechargeable battery in the dog's collar. We love this feature.
HHeather HENKE Google reviewLearning the boundary step by step
This is important because there are multiple steps in order to do the training gradually so that your dog has an opportunity to properly learn the boundary line. Although it is a lot of information, Cameron gave us good instructions (including handouts) and was available via text when/if we had questions.
JJ Google reviewSupport after installation
Superior follow up service with Cameron! We love our system. Cameron checked in with us a few months after our installation. I had a few training questions .. he offered to come in person the next day. We highly recommend.

From the start, communication and professionalism were amazing: prompt responses, a clear quote, and a friendly, patient Cameron made the entire process seamless. He took the time to customize the system for our yard and our dog’s personality, ensuring everything was a perfect fit.
CCurtis Langkamer Google reviewHelp after a contractor cut the wire
We noticed our fence was disabled due to a cut line by a contractor. This was a Sunday afternoon at 2:20pm. I contacted Cameron and by 7:30pm our fence was fixed. Thank you for your prompt response and fix. 10/10
KKaren Baltzer Google reviewTwo dogs and years of use
Amazing service and product. We have had Dog Fence for 5 plus years for our two dogs. We love it! Customer service provided is always spot on & fast!

Cameron showed up on the installation date, walked the property with us and explained everything again.
Quick answers to what people usually ask. Anything else, just ask when we talk.
What happens after I call or send the form?
We’ll talk for a few minutes about your dog, your yard and what you’d like the fence to do. Then we look at your property on satellite imagery and put together a written quote for your layout. For complicated properties, or if you’d like to see the equipment first, we can come out for a free visit. There’s no pressure and no obligation.
How much will mine cost?
Essential is $1,945, Connected is $2,195 and Complete is $2,545, all plus HST. Connected adds the LINK smart collar and app, and Complete adds a LINK transmitter with battery backup. Layouts that need less than 500 feet of wire can come in under the package price.
What moves the price: how much wire your layout needs ($0.90 per foot past the included 500), how many dogs (an extra collar is $495, or $745 for a LINK smart collar), driveway crossings, garden loops and travel.
There’s no deposit. Pay in full, or in four equal interest-free payments over six months, starting on installation day. You’ll have the exact number in writing before you decide.
How long does training take, and what do I have to do?
We do the first session with you on install day and leave you a simple plan. Most dogs learn the boundary in about a week of short daily sessions. Some take a few days, some ten or more. Keep your dog on leash near the boundary until the plan says they’re ready, take the collar off at night, and call or text us if anything is unclear. Your free revisit within 30 days is there if you’d like a hand.
Are there ongoing costs?
No subscription or disposable battery purchases. The collar recharges in about three hours. If equipment ever needs replacing under warranty, the fee is 20% of its original price, and a wire cut by digging is repaired as a paid service call.
How soon could you install?
Outside the spring rush, often within a few days. In spring, bookings can run three to four weeks out. We install and bury wire whenever the ground isn’t frozen, and in winter we can pin the wire to the surface, then bury it once the ground thaws.
Do you serve my area?
We cover Southwestern Ontario, roughly everything between Barrie, Fort Erie and Chatham-Kent. That includes Niagara, Hamilton, Halton, Peel, Toronto, Kitchener-Waterloo, Guelph, Brantford, London, Woodstock and Simcoe County. Longer drives will add to the cost.
Ready when you are
Call 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., seven days a week, or send your details any time and we’ll call you.
