Dog Guard of Alabama, Georgia, & Florida

The service area centers on the Wiregrass region of southeast Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. On the Alabama side, that means Dothan, Headland, Abbeville, and surrounding counties, including Houston, Henry, Dale, Coffee, Geneva, and Barbour. In Florida, coverage reaches Panama City and nearby counties like Bay, Jackson, Washington, and Holmes, and the team also takes care of nearby southwest Georgia communities. The published list is not exhaustive, so it is always worth asking about your address.

An estimate is built from your property rather than a standard rate card. The sandy, well-drained lots common around the Wiregrass usually make for straightforward wire burial, so the main variables are the size and shape of the boundary, how many dogs need receivers, and anything the wire must cross, such as a long drive or an irrigation run. You will have the estimate before any installation is scheduled.

No. Southeast Alabama and the Florida Panhandle stay workable year-round, so scheduling follows your calendar, not the ground. The practical questions are your own, like getting the boundary trained before a new puppy's habits set in or before summer travel. In the hottest months, your Local Pro simply plans the training sessions for the cooler morning hours.

Yes, there is a Trade-Up program for existing systems. If your current electronic fence is aging, unreliable, or from a company that no longer supports it, the team can move you onto Dog Guard equipment, often reusing a sound existing wire loop where it makes sense. That keeps the switch simple and gets you local service from a Local Pro instead of a distant call center.

Yes, one buried loop can serve the whole pack. Each dog wears its own receiver with its own settings, and the two-zone transmitter lets corrections be tailored so a timid beagle and a headstrong cur are each handled appropriately. Dogs from about 4 pounds and up can use the system, with receivers that weigh under 2 ounces. Adding a dog later takes a receiver, not a new fence.

For keeping a dog home on a defined property, buried wire is the more dependable tool. The boundary is physical, so it does not drift with satellite signal, and tree cover along a field edge does not degrade it. There are no monthly fees, and the receiver battery runs about a month, where GPS collars typically need daily charging. Dog Guard equipment is designed and assembled in America.
