Hi Jamie,
Just wanted to give you an update. Dakota (knock on wood) has not made a mistake. I do still go out with them at night to monitor but I will start letting them out after dark on their own little by little just to be safe.
This morning I was on my computer working and saw both the dogs racing across the yard as fast as they can and they both came to a dead stop and did not cross the fence. I saw there was a fox also racing across the open field which they were chasing. Yeah!!!!!
Also, over the weekend there were people walking down the road with dogs and kids and again they did not leave the fenced area even though the stupid people just sat at the end of the driveway staring at my dogs.

Dear Jamie,
I just want to thank you and Brian for your patient, professional, and gracious work as you repaired the invisible dog containment fencing around our backyard. I was prepared to replace the pre-existing fence system (installed by another competitor who doesn’t follow through with good service). After you familiarized yourself with my yard and set-up, it was decided to try a repair first. It turned out that my new sprinkler system installation just about “decimated” the fencing system … but you persevered without complaint and trouble-shot the wiring complications… despite the drizzling rain and my complicated garden requirements. Now our system is up and running!!! I’m still smiling! I guess this is the most challenging repair you’ve had in 12 years! Your work ethic is great … refreshing. My husband and I have decided to convert our old dog containment system to your Dog Guard System with your Out of Sight Fencing. We look forward to a long working relationship with you and your company. We are truly heartened to know you. You’re as a hands-on business owner who still values quality, customer service and courtesy, and displays a passionate knowledgeable of your Dog Guard products.
With our appreciation,
Mike and Kathy … and Gus – our 77 lb. Goldendoodle Bloomfield Township
P.S. To anyone reading this as our family’s testimonial: You can’t go wrong with Jamie! Quality, value, and pricing are all absolutely wonderful.
Just wanted to thank you and your company for the peace of mind you gave us and the safety of our dog, lady with the dog guard containment system it is the best thing since peanut butter and jelly. From day 1 this has been a joy not having to worry about lady getting out.
We are friends with Bob and Dee of Howell, MI. And they told us about the Dog Guard company they highly recommended this co. And Jamie and Megan Guay.
Jamie and his crew came, on time if I may add, and explained everything to us and how it worked and they came in Jan. 2011 and stapled the wire and set up the system in our garage and put up flags and answered all of our questions and Jamie was very knowledgeable and we have recommended Jamie and this co. Very highly. Then in April they set up an appointment to put the wire underground.
Jamie and crew worked very deligently and in sinc with each other.
The price was another selling feature that amazed us.. Very good price.
Jamie is very honest and does what he says and we can still call him and he will answer our questions with no hesitation.
We can not say enough about Jamie and this company "dog guard out of sight fencing.
Thank you again
Al and Cindy Milne of Fowlerville
Jamie ~ Thank you for making us safe at home! You’ve given our family peace of mind.
Thought we’d send you a few photos for advertisement &/or enjoyment.

Dear Jamie,
We want to thank you personally for all the help you have given us with our beagle, Daisy!
As you know, we previously had the Invisible Fence brand system and were having no success in containing our dog. Their system was not allowing us to adjust the signal width, strength of correction and warning beeps in a way that were effective for training our difficult-to-train dog. We had their system for four years and could not get any further solutions when we contacted them. We literally ended up hanging the collar on our bedpost and chalked it up as a failure. We had to resort to taking our dog outside on a leash and unfortunately, many times, had to go looking for her when she left the yard and wandered away. Then, we bumped into you at your booth at the Fenton Expo and asked you for some ideas. You gladly offered your help and contacted us to set up an appointment.
With your help, we swapped out our Invisible Fence control box with your Dog Guard system and gave Daisy a new correction collar. You worked with us diligently over the next few weeks to re-train her and adjust the levels in the system to be appropriate for training her. You promptly returned our calls when we had questions and also addressed any concerns we had with her ability to navigate certain areas of our yard.
We especially appreciated that you allowed us to use the system until we were absolutely sure it was going to be successful before you required us to commit to payment. After experiencing the failure of the last system, that really showed us that you were confident in your product and willing to let us gain confidence as well.
Now we are able to enjoy having Daisy outside with us and not worry about her getting lost and wandering away. It is a huge relief having that security now! Thank you again from our whole family!
Sincerely,
Dan and Becky Sanborn (and Daisy!)
We love our invisible fence. Buck loves it too. We followed Jamie’s training instructions to the letter. The training period was very brief and we’ve had great success. The customer service is excellent.
Thanks! Mitzi, Patrick and Buck
My dog Marshall is a 95 pound golden retriever. We got the fence when he was a year old because he kept running in the road to greet our neighbors. I was terrified he was going to get hit by a car. Marshall is a big dog with LOTS of energy. He loves to run after animals and play ball. I think his ball is his favorite thing in the world… other than us of course! Before we got the fence Marshall would bark when he was outside and if he wasn’t tied up he would run in the road. The fence changed his life. His confidence has increased. He loves to play outside and run full blast around the house. He never barks at the door which the neighbors appreciate! He doesn’t go anywhere near the property line or the road. Even if we are playing ball and his ball goes over the line he will stop dead in his tracks and wait for me to retrieve his toy. The other day we had a bunny in our back yard and Marshall took off after it, but stopped before the fence. However, if I put his leash on him he knows he can walk over the line and go for walk down the road with me. I highly recommend Dog Guard to anyone that loves their dog. As far as Jamie Guay you couldn’t ask for a better installer and service provider. But don’t take my word for it, buy one for yourself. I promise your dog will love you for it!

Hi Jamie & Megan, I can’t believe we have had the system over 6 months already! We thoroughly enjoy our Dog Guard pet containment system, after being so terrified when Maggie thought chasing cars was great fun, it is so nice to see her playing safely in the yard while cars drive past, or to pull in the driveway, and see her lying on the front porch, surveying her domain. We really enjoy being able to work and play in the yard, without worrying about her running off. She is so well trained that I sometimes forget to put the collar on her. She loves the freedom of the system, particularly since we got the second collar for her best friend. (Jamie – thank you so much for going the extra mile (literally and figuratively!) to meet me between appointments so I could pick up the collar before our canine guest arrived for the long weekend!). Maggie’s BFF (Best Furry Friend) is now trained on our system, which allows for frequent doggy play dates without going to a dog park! On Friday, I was working on the tractor, collecting 15 bags of leaves while the dogs chased each other and played in their special leaf pile! I am so glad we included the detached garage on the system – while we were working there yesterday, Maggie occasionally popped the door open with her nose to check in with us while “keeping watch” over the rest of the property. And you were so meticulous in the installation – I still remember Megan sweeping the mud off the driveway while Jamie & Brian were installing the wire. I told her not to bother, since we live on a gravel road, but she said that Jamie insists on leaving each installation as neat as possible. Guess we should have installed the system when we had a foot of snow on the driveway! And thank you again for arranging for Megan to conduct Maggie’s training, she was so patient with Maggie, who at that time, as a result of her puppy mill experience, was still leery of men. And I appreciate how quickly you called back or texted me when I had questions about the training. We made the right decision going with Dog Guard.

If you are like me and researching electric fences, look no further…Jamie Guay and Dog Guard are a no brainer. My husband and I moved into a new home and did not want the look of any type of fence around our home; however, our 5 year old Boston Terrier seemed a hopeless case with training in the area of running away. She is so wonderful and sweet, yet, the second she gets out, she’s a little you know what!!!!!! Running up and down the street, all around the neighborhood, WILL NOT LISTEN!
After reading the other testimonials on Jamie’s site, I called him. After a few minutes of speaking with him, I knew he was the person we wanted to install the system. Jamie is an excellent business man because not only does he have ample knowledge on the electric fence system and how to install, he’s a genuine, gets the job done, thinks-with-his -heart type of person that you want at your home to protect your animals.
He took proper time with Pheobe and let me tell you, she has not ONCE run away and it’s been over 4 months since the install. She has gotten the correction several times and immediately came back. We are in AWE. She comes outside with us and enjoys the outdoors and it’s such a joy!!!!! Money well spent. Cannot even tell you the value of peace of mind knowing she is safe for before, she was in danger of being hit and killed, possibly in front of one of our three children.
Thank you, Jamie. The system is amazing, as are you. Many blessings of abundance to you and your family

Hi Jami!
Just saying hello and letting you know everything is working good at this time! Here’s a photo of Sookie for you!

Jamie,
I purchased my DogGuard invisible fence almost two years ago. The install went so smoothly and you lived up to your reputation of impeccable service. The fence worked famously for my German Shepherd puppy, Seven. When I decided to put my house up for sale, I wasn’t sure what to think of the huge investment I had just made in this DogGuard unit but you put my mind at ease right away. The removal of the unit from my old house and the install into my new house was a breeze.
I’ve always felt that customer service is paramount but so often the expectation is that you’ll just be satisfied. I’ve always felt the customer service should do something more… go out of the way to exceed expectations. You and your company exemplify this level of service. You have always been so accommodating and go out of your way to make sure I have everything I need.
I continue to recommend your company to anyone that is getting a puppy and to those who have full-grown dogs that need some kind of containment system.
I think of you often – every time I open the door to the outside and just let Seven run outside to roam. I know he’s safely contained and that I don’t have to worry at all. Thank you so much for everything. Please feel free to give my contact information to anyone that wishes to get the inside scoop on what it’s really like to work with DogGuard.
Sincerely,
Kathi D. Ann Arbor, MI
Dear Jamie,
I wanted to give you some feedback for your website.
Thank you so much for Dog Guard. You guys were awesome to work with from my first inquiry all the way through my last payment to you. You guys were very quick to respond to my inquiry….your pricing was great and your payment terms allowed us to get our fence installed before we even thought we could. Chloe, our 5 lb toy poodle/rat terrier mix, was starting to escape the yard more than she should have. I was afraid she was going to get hit by a car or someone would pick her up and take her home. All it took was the one lesson from you to teach her where her boundaries are and she has been trained ever since. Your training process is easy and you were wonderful with our dog and us. I will recommend you to everyone I know looking for an invisible fence for their pet. Thanks again for your wonderful service!

Jamie, Well I took your advice and put Trixie on the halter for the session this afternoon. I went out the front door and she was very hesitant when she saw that the ‘flags’ were still in place…..only one time did she approach the line and got near a flag. Most of the time when we approached a flag she sat down and just looked, so I would pull on the lease and run back and tell her good dog. I tried to see if she would breach the system and approached a flag and I heard the signal and she started whining so I ran her back into the ‘safe’ zone and praised her. She saw the disk and flags on the driveway and stopped…didn’t even approach it.
So all-in-all I am pleased with our investment and so look forward to playing ball with her, having her join us at the fire pit and giving her free rein of the yard
Have a great weekend.
Janice Kennedy
P.S. She didn’t even try to bolt across the cul-de-sac to see her friend Brody….
We have 3 dogs, one old guy and 2 new ones. We had the underground fence system, but it needed repairs and we needed additional collars for new dogs. I called Jamie and he was able to repair the old system and provide us with new collars for less than half what the other company was going to charge. He was very professional and loving to our dogs and we are well underway with our training. I have already recommended Dog Guard to all of my pet owner friends, they were great. Thank you and have fun upnorth!
