I purchased Perimeter Pro Grade Ultra Comfort Contact System to replace a cheaper system I had installed several months ago from another retailer. The previous system was riddled with problems, interference, sporadic collar activation, constant wire breaks and in general just not safe for my dog. I should have returned it in the beginning. The signs and symptoms started almost immediately. I guess I was just too tired and lazy after spending the weekend installing the original one. I might add the customer service for the cheaper system was non existent.
I had full intention of sending the new pro grade system back, should it not perform to my standards. This new system is significantly better and has none of the issues my previous system had. This system works perfectly! I also had several questions about the new system. I made several phone calls to the seller and was surprised that an actual knowledgeable person answered the phone. It's nice to know if any problems pop up, I won't be stuck in e-mail hell while waiting for a response.
I ruled out the wireless fence based upon the inflexibility of a circular wireless zone system and its lack of customization. Many of the reviews I saw were extremely bad. I have a smaller dog and did not want such a large collar on him. One of my neighbors had used a wireless dog fence and informed me of the sporadic nature of the fence. His dogs got warned in several areas of the house. With the shape of my yard, a wireless dog fence system would also not work properly based on the fact that you can only make a limited circle containment zone up to 100 feet. The 100 foot zone would have put my dog 20 feet onto my neighbor's property and 20 feet out into the street, unless I limited his play space even more.
I considered a professionally installed system but was aghast at the estimates that the professional companies had given me. They ranged in price from $1200 to $2000 dollars! This was not an option and the installation of these fences is not really complex enough to justify such high margins, in my opinion. Even after all the problems I had with my previous containment system, I knew that there must be something better available on the market.
Pro Grade Electric Dog Fence system.
Upon examining the Pro Grade System, I found the general construction and appearance of durability seemed much better than the previous system I had installed. I always believed you get what you pay for, and in many cases buying the cheaper option is not always the best. You wind up paying more when you find out a product doesn't work the way you expected, you end up just having to buy the more expensive option and are stuck with the inferior previous product. This holds even truer now and even more important with the safety of my dog.
The Pro Grade system didn't have any of the problems I experienced with the previous system I had installed. It works! The collar activated precisely at the boundaries with zero sporadic areas in the yard like the other system had. It also worked flawlessly around the areas the fence ran parallel against the cables and utilities. I was very pleased with the accessories that came with the pro grade system: heavy duty perimeter wire, 50 feet of twisted wire, very heavy duty flags, and an extremely beefy surge protector.
I have listed the positives in bullet points for ease of reading.
*Extremely well made - Actually made in the U.S.A. in comparison to other systems I had looked at that were made in China. This product screams of quality and performance from initial inspection.
*Heavy duty installation supplies - 14 Gauge water proof wire is included, also pre twisted heavy wire helped make installation from the transmitter a breeze. I actually had to order a bit more 14 twisted dog fence wire from here, the seller was nice enough to send me a complete 100 foot continuous roll, so I didn't have to make wire connections.
*Extra heavy duty dog fence surge protector with a Lifetime warranty
*Transmitter has an easy to use digital display system making it easy to adjust the distance your dog has to stay back from the line
*Lifetime Limited Warranty on the electronics and 3 years Parts and Labor Warranty.
All in all I am definitely happy with this system, it has only been a couple of days since I have installed it, but I can tell it's going to hold up.

Self-installed and trained. Works great!
I bought the fence for a rather trainable and intelligent (learned to roll over in 1 hour) Golden Doodle puppy who was 4 months old.Installation: was straightforward. I used a spade to move 2-3 inches of grass up and settled the wire underneath. However, it took me 4-5 hours to lay about 350 feet of wire on my own. So be prepared for time consuming work. This also included running the wire on the roof (explained below).Customer support: phenomenal! I couldn't figure out how to lay the wire without closing off the entrance to the back door. The representative I spoke to helped me problem solve a solution. I ran the wire above the door on the roof which gave it enough distance not to trigger when going out the door. Simple, yet genius.Success? Yep! You can't see it in the picture, but my dog is just sitting looking at a bird. He does this now with rabbits as well! For a puppy, this is amazing. I followed their training videos and suggestions, and after three weeks I trust the dog will stay in the yard 98% of the time. He can't resist running to play with the neighbor kids about once a week, but I attribute this to him being a lovable puppy.Great product, customer service, and I saved about $2000 over a professional company.
