Dog System FAQ's and Reviews

Frequently Asked Questions

A: First, it’s important that your pet already be well adjusted to the home environment before training starts. There are no size limitations, but we do recommend your pet be at least 12 weeks of age.

A: It usually takes about four days to train your dog. This is when you get the training package that offers complete training. We come out 3 – 4 days in a row and train your dog. You follow a few rules and most dogs are running free in 4 days. Our gentle, humane method of training drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to train. If you decide to complete the training yourself, it will take up to 2 weeks.
 

A: No, we are not. However, as independent contractors we can provide service and products for other pet containment brands, including product upgrades, replacements, exchanges, and trade-ins.

A: The correction used is harmless and humane, just enough to startle your pet, nothing more. The amount of energy used in a correction is no more than that produced by a carpet’s static shock.

A: No. If you have an aggressive dog, we will not sell or install an electric dog fence unless it is to be used in conjunction with a preexisting wooden or chain-link fence. We do not recommend the use of corrections with aggressive dogs and instead suggest you seek your veterinarian’s advice for alternative methods.

A: Usually the battery will last from 6 to 9 months, but this will vary depending on how often your dog tests the boundaries. When the batteries are low, an indicator light will flash so you’ll be able to change the batteries before they expire.

We recently moved to Chesapeake VA and used Tim and his team to install our invisible fence for our two basset hounds. We were very skeptical at first since hounds are extremely stubborn but after two training session and a final check in and adjustment by Tim in person we haven’t had any issues. We highly recommend it has been wonderful for our hounds!

Better than ever dreamed! Our new puppy needed an electric fence. Pet stop advised me on the best design and then did the training. Our Waffles, an Irish doodle, was trained in 1.5 of the 3 days of training. It is so nice to be able to just let her out of the house versus go outside each time. Also as a runner, I have been so impressed- she is well trained and respects the fence barrier for passing runners and dogs. Definitely would recommend!

These guys were recommended by a friend of mine and they were very responsive and exactly what they said they would do. I tried the remote fences and had success with my last dog but our new puppy could care less about the wireless fence. Tim at Pet Stop gave a guarantee that they would have the dog trained or my money back and it has been a lifesaver.

We decided on using Pet Stop for our invisible dog fence install, and it has been working great. The install took a single day, and they were able to work around some of the specifics on where and how we wanted the fence installed without any issue. The included dog training followed the next day, and the trainer did a great job at showing the dogs how they should react to the fence, and also gave me insight on how to continue the training. Our dogs have adapted perfectly to it, and they can now actually spend time out in the yard around our property without us having to worry about them wondering off into the woods.

They installed an invisible fence at our new house. I am extremely satisfied with the overall customer service that was provided. The installer (I can't recall his name at the moment) was awesome and so was Jillian the trainer. I am beyond thankful for their quick response and how they checked to be sure everything was fine after they left. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for their services.

Tim was quick to respond when we were first interested in installing a fence. This option for fencing was ideal for us due to our property line and we have a power line behind us that would prohibit a traditional fence. We have also used this to enforce the training that we did with our puppy early on. We highly recommend Pet Stop to all of our Dog Lover Friends.
