There are other companies that sell a similar product, why should I choose Derby's Pet Fence over the others?
All the companies in our area share the same basic technology that was invented by Invisible Fence® many years ago. Each has a good product and will help you keep your dog safe. We truly believe that each company operates with the well being of your pet as their top priority and each of them have an effective product. So, your choice comes down to finding a company that you trust and that offers you the best overall value. We've developed the attached Buyer's Tool to help you compare this areas most popular companies side-by-side.
The training time varies with each dog and each trainer. On average, it takes 10 minutes twice a day for 2 weeks to train your dog.
NO. The mild correction that your dog feels is designed to be undesirable so your dog will avoid it, yet is totally harmless and humane. Our systems give the dog an audible alert BEFORE a shock is received. Your dog will quickly associate the audible alarm with impending discomfort, so he or she will soon understand where the boundaries are.
Almost all dogs can be successfully trained to stay safely in their yard with our systems. There are a few breeds or circumstances that may need special consideration. We will discuss your situation with you before we begin any installation.
No. Most of the collars that we sell have built-in Lithium Ion batteries that never need replacing. The collars are designed to possibly last the life of your pet — all you have to do is recharge the battery when indicated.
We use specialized equipment that minimizes any damage to your lawn. A very thin groove is made in your lawn to bury the wire. The groove is covered up before we leave.
Is Derby's Pet Fence the same as Invisible Fence®?
Derby's Pet Fence sells electronic pet fencing that is similar to what is sold by Invisible Fence®, but we use products with a higher level of technology that provide significant improvement and cost savings for the pet owner. We DO often have used Invisible Fence® collars and other hardware for sale to dog owners in Kentucky.
Does Derby's Pet Fence service Invisible Fence® systems in the Louisville area?
Yes. We can repair any type of electronic pet fencing system in the Louisville KY area. We service Invisible Fence®, Dog Watch®, Dog Guard®, Pet Stop®, and even self-installed systems.
Does it make sense to switch to a Derby's Pet Fence if I already have an Invisible Fence® system?
Often, in less than 3 or 4 years, you will be ahead of the game financially by letting us upgrade your system to a Derby's Pet Fence system. With four dogs or more, that payback time is less than 3 years! In addition to the cost savings – you will get several other features that will be a step-up from what you currently have.
If you are adding a new dog to your pack – the payback is almost immediate because of the high price that Invisible Fence® charges for a new collar. It's a "no-brainer" to switch from Invisible Fence® to a Derby's Pet Fence in this situation.
We are an independent local company servicing the Louisville Kentucky area. We service all brands of electronic pet fencing in the Louisville area, including Invisible Fence®. The Buyer's Tool effectively points out the differences in our products and services. The most notable difference is our rechargeable collar with a limited lifetime warranty.
