There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
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.
NOTE: The Dane is a BIG dog and she runs FAST. She can break through the 10' setting easily if she's running. We originally had her on progressive setting and rubber tips for training. We moved up to the smaller metal probes and highest collar setting, still we found her getting excited and running through it. Finally we used the longer metal probes and tightened the collar for good contact. She hasn't been out since. We could increase the distance from the wire but they'd lose a good part of our yard (due to lots of curves) so we're trying to keep it on the 10' setting.
Overall, so far a well designed product. Good directions (minus the missing surge suppressor directions). We will see how it lasts, we used the large gauge wire to hopefully prevent future breaks and issues.
Positive points:
This is 14 gauge wire and it is sturdy and much easier to bury. We had two quotes from local people, not only were they more than twice the price, but they used 20 gauge wire (much thinner and less sturdy).
Installing it ourselves, we were able to double loop the back yard and keep all the wiring in the back. The services that would install it for us would not do that. Not only does this keep our guy in the back, but if the first zing doesn't convince him of the error of his ways, the second will.
We laid it our above ground first and started the training. Through the first week, we identified a weak area where he was willing to take the pain and go for it. Because of the amount of wire that comes with the system, we were able to loop it multiple times in that area to convince him he didn't need to go and greet other dogs without us.
Negative Point: Instructions MUST be included with the product.
We have a one-half acre lot with the backyard taking about 45% and there was leftover wire even with the double looping. To do the double loop, you must leave sufficient distance between the two wires to make sure they don't cancel out and make the whole system ineffective.
Training is going well, but as with any obedience lessons, not all dogs take to it the same way. As with any training, strongly urge following the directions for getting your dog used to this system, always be prepared that nature may override physical discomfort given the right incentive (e.g. deer). But looking forward to this giving our "Billy," and us, some level of freedom - with supervision.
