Dear Bruce and the Staff of Hidden Fence of Minnesota,
We are so pleased with the gentle effectiveness of the product that Hidden Fence of Minnesota has provided for our 3-year old Pug. We had used Invisible Fence brand many years ago in a previous house for our now deceased Labrador Retriever. In hindsight, the training program was worrisome, as the shock was very abrubtly introduced, causing an alarming reaction from our pet. After the training, he respected the fenceline - too well. He gave it such a wide berth that it severely limited him from using what should have been warning-free/shock-free yard. We were happy when we moved into a house with a fenced-in backyard, where the Labrador and our new Pug puppy could enjoy the grass and sunshine without our worry.
We have since moved from the house with the fenced-in backyard to a house without one, and were planning on having a fence built. However, once we saw how our school-aged children and their new friends played in the backyard, we knew we didn't want to contain the kids, just the dog! We decided to skeptically explore the idea of a pet-containment system, as we were feeling apprehensive by our previous experience. We met neighbors who were also Pug owners with a fenceless yard, and they enthusiastically recommended Hidden Fence of Minnesota. We called and Bruce came out to our house to discuss with us our greatest concern - the training program.
He explained that the training program utilized progressive physical signals that allowed the individual pet to dictate their threshold of comfort, not the standard one-size-fits-all shock signal used by other companies. This was the selling point for us, and we are so glad we use Hidden Fence brand. Our Pug is so comfortable with the containment system that she respects the boundaries even if she is outside without her collar - this is amazing, since she was a wanderer before we installed the Hidden Fence! As a veterinarian and as a dog-owner, I couldn't be more pleased with Hidden Fence of Minnesota - the product, the people, and the service are outstanding!
Sincerely,

My husband Ron would not let me buy a fence for almost a year.
He was going to do it himself but Barney was always tied up, barking, watching our lives from inside or the end of a leash. Well, Surprise! Ron returned the Electric dog fence kit to the store for a full refund and had Hidden Dog Fence Company install a fence for us. Bruce's dog training skills were incredible and Barney has been home bound for 6 months now. It has been one of the best gifts I have ever received. We all just go outside now, and Barney won't leave. He has had the best times of his life.

Wow! Our dog was trained to our electric fence in a few days and now watches the neighborhood children play across the street! We are the third dog fence on our Street, but the first to use Bruce Peterson's Hidden Dog Fence Company. Our collar can be programmed to visit the other neighbors' homes, but their dogs cannot visit out property. All three neighbors now recommend electronic pet fencing by Hidden Dog Fence Company!
